Just curious what your opinion is about getting free sketches at art openings. Is it rude? Is it fair game? etc... I think there was a thread about this before...

I am thinking about going up to Seattle to see Travis Louie / Kris Kuksi, but the drive is about 4 hours for me one way - which I usually drive up and back for in the same day.

I think some artists don't mind, it just depends. In this case, I think Travis is usually cool with it, especially in Seattle where it's usually not crowded although it sounds like you won't be going anymore. I know that some artists and galleries would be unhappy with it though.
