Union of the Snake

That's me in the middle ground, the one with the Cupe 391 sign hanging off my shoulder (so I could draw more comfortably, of course). CUPE stands for Canadian Union of Public Employees, of which I am one.

We're currently on strike and have been since late July. The weather has been really good for picketing, so I can't complain much. Plus, I'm getting a chance to do lots of sketching. I'll post some pages from my picket sketchbook soon.
