Today, the Australian Cartoonists' Association (ACA) was taking part of the inaugural "Writers in the Park" at Centennial Park in Sydney.

Representing the ACA were Jules Faber and myself. Below are a few photos taken on the day... Click on the thumbnails below to see the photo bigger.

The tent where the authors were giving talks...

Look who dropped by, no other than legendary Australian cartoonist Bruce Petty!

Another bad joke from Jules: Check the kid rolling his eyes!

"Illustrator Duel": Three illustrators given 5 minutes to draw a random picture from three clues picked by random people in the crowd: "Cat", "Dancing", "Zombie". On your marks, get set, GO!

James Foley's 5mn drawing: Excellent

Sarah Davis' 5mn drawing: Excellent!
