by FireFlyNexes on 10/22/2010 @ 2:25pm | you know the blue really adds some life to Andrea's. Not that its not awesome by itself it just gives it that under water fell all the more. |
by Joel 413 on 10/22/2010 @ 2:45pm | Apparently I can't remember to change the lighting setting on my camera, I took a picture inside this morning with incandescent lighting and forgot to change it back to daylight. |
 by Crenshaw Sepulveda on 10/22/2010 @ 2:59pm | I vote Andrea. Great promo for Claw's open swim. |
by UnstableArt on 10/22/2010 @ 3:10pm | I thought I had gotten everyone, but I missed Debivans'. Sorry :( My favorites were MANY this time around, but I'm really being pulled towards Brian's Heavy Metal Chalker Andrea  RxR  Joel  Brian   Monlux  Poppy  Tram  Adam  |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 3:16pm | I know Andrea's shark will be popular with the toddler. |
 by Mark Monlux on 10/22/2010 @ 3:22pm | My shots of today's fun:
Adam the Alien in action 
Andrea's CLAW's Open Swim 
Brian's freaky chalker 
Joel redoes the mirror 
Tram's Narnia Homage 
Ben Davis 
Mark Monlux promotes Brownie Morrison's 
Poppy's 
And this is what I think Joel Larson will look like in 2020.  |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 3:33pm | today we were visited by local celebrity and inventor SolaRichard!
 |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 3:37pm | got some really fun ACTION SHOTS of Andrea and Adam the Alien
|
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 3:39pm | my old chalk drawing of Joe Biden hasn't held up at all.
is looking like one of the face-melting nazis from end of 'Raiders' |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 3:42pm | this week I decided to draw my traditional end of season topic: jack o lanterns
|
 by morgan on 10/22/2010 @ 3:43pm | What an end-of-season blow out! So many awesome drawings, but only one winner. My vote goes to Andrea, of course! |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 3:46pm | I enjoy this entry by CLAW no 13 aka Debivans
 |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 3:47pm | Brian's art was particularly bad ass this day. I suspect it will be popular with his ravenous fan army
 |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 3:50pm | REMEMBER TO ADD YOUR CHALK PHOTOS TO THE FLICKR PHOTO POOL!

by FireFlyNexes on 10/22/2010 @ 3:53pm | You know I really should remember to look for groups and things for events like this. |
 by AnagramPress on 10/22/2010 @ 3:55pm | Oh, man. Too many excellent choices. Hmm. Well, although RXR's jack o'lanterns completely made my day, I'm going to have to vote for Andrea. That shark is fantastic, and the hand-drawn drippy blood type just warms the cockles of my heart.
So yeah. I vote for Andrea. |
by MsPoppy on 10/22/2010 @ 4:09pm | My Vote is for Adam the Alien/Devil/Angel! |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 4:20pm | Wow a comment from professional artist AnagramPress a rare honor! |
by NineInchNachos on 10/22/2010 @ 4:21pm | ALSO the New Takhoman will be happy to know about the many vintage detective clothes in play today! |
 by Erik on 10/22/2010 @ 4:36pm | Wow. Today was one for the record books.
Andrea's CLAW open swim is too scary though. I vote for it. |

by paulamanley on 10/22/2010 @ 4:51pm | I vote for Adam the Alien's villainous drawing. :) |
 by Admael on 10/22/2010 @ 5:01pm | I vote for Adam the Alien in all his purple wearing glory! |
 by Jesse on 10/22/2010 @ 5:05pm | Although it's scary, I vote for Brian. |
 by Warren on 10/22/2010 @ 5:05pm | My Vote: Andrea's "CLAW's Open Swim"
Nice! |
 by kiru13 on 10/22/2010 @ 5:08pm | Nice work everyone but I have to cast my vote to Adam's devil/angel alien. :D |
 by debivans on 10/22/2010 @ 5:40pm | Oops, no spell check on those Frost Park walls. I meant LEDERHOSEN-to go with the "saying good bye" theme, plus it fits in with Octoberfest. |
by Joel 413 on 10/22/2010 @ 6:07pm | Let this be a lesson to you all. Don't ask me how to spell a word! I'm 0 for 2.
Monkies and Leiderhosen |
by Joel 413 on 10/22/2010 @ 6:50pm | I've started some preliminary work on a not-so-secret "other project" for the Amocat Show.
And this made me smile: i.feedtacoma.com/Erik/rain-free-frost-pa... |
by debivans on 10/22/2010 @ 7:01pm | Brian's piece is awesome! And by the way that is Eddie, whose full name is Eddie the Head, Eddie the 'ead, or Edward the Head (also known as Edward the Great or Evil Eddie.) He is the mascot for the British heavy metal band Iron Maiden. He is a perennial fixture in the album cover art, as well as ever present in their live shows. Learn your Eddie people, there is a whole storyline if you look at the Maiden albums in chronological order. |
by Bjr on 10/22/2010 @ 7:12pm | Adam I like the use of the wall today way to split that , How did you not get chalk on that jacket today? Some of us where it like tattoos or make up. Andera your piece was jaw droping , Adam best yet , dont leave your prang alone. . I Had fun today Eddie Lives I forgot to put that next to my piece. I vote for my Chalk after death today. |
by Bjr on 10/22/2010 @ 7:18pm | Debivans thanks for the Iron Maiden history refresher I`ve drawn hundreds of Eddies through out high school he was on the back patch of my jacket on desks of all 6 classes a day and the hood of my 68 GTO going to start doing airbrush pieces soon. |

 by crockawaddy on 10/22/2010 @ 7:40pm | I vote for Adam the Alien's split personality (nice use of Brian's left-over dark and light surfaces). Nice work by all; I will miss this weekly event and look forward to next year. BTW - nice pic of Andrea's shark lunging for her.... :-0 |

SO many incredible entries this final week! Thanks for the vote, AnagramPress! As much as I like how my JAWS/CLAW'S homage turned out, I must cast my vote for Brian's Heavy Metal Chalker. The character and green flames are badass, and the the scale of that thing blew me away. IT'S YOUR ONE WAY TICKET TO MIDNIGHT! |
