DAVE COFELL'S GALLERY

Sketches!

I'll be the first to tell you that I don't draw very well. But it has gotten better over the years, when I practice it enough. It is certainly something which does not come naturally to me although I really enjoy doing it once I get started.

	Some people find the naked female form distracting, and I guess I do too sometimes, but what is even more distracting is driving with Kids in the car. Wisconsin Death Trip (right) was a quick cartoon done in about a minute after a drive to Green Bay, WI.
	Nudes.

About the Music

"Now You See Me"

This one was written in A minor for the piano in 1988, a kind of a musical doodle. "Now you see me and now you don't, I'm here then I'm gone..." I later expanded it when I transcribed it into Finale Notepad.
