Introducing SX Sketchbook 2014

'Chronicle' comic artist Jen Sorensen sketches SXSW sights

Last year, we asked Chronicle comic artist Jen Sorensen to sketch some of her favorite sights from Downtown during South by Southwest Interactive.

We were so pleased with the results that we decided to have the Herblock Prize-winning artist go back for round two.

Here are three from her first few days on the street.


Follow along with Jen's journey on Twitter: @JenSorensen. For another artsy take on the Festival, see our photo galleries.
