OKAY! Let’s just get it out of the way that I am a very indecisive artist, to say the least. I sit and contemplate a piece to death through every step of the way before publishing it, and then sometimes even continue to work on it after I have hit ”share” on all my social media. This piece was of a particular challenge, though, because I am unfortunately pretty bad at drawing hats at all,...

Here is a new completed piece, my pink leather cowgirl! She was honestly incredibly challenging, not least of which is because I don’t usually draw western-wear! In any case, here she is with a few process images, from pencils to inks and then flats! I hope y’all enjoy! :)))

Hi, y’all! While I am in the process of working on a couple of pieces, I thought I would just share a few sketches I’ve had lying around. As you can see now (and will likely continue to see in the future), I sketch A LOT of faces! It’s just what my hand goes to in the immediate when I don’t know what else to draw, and it also feels really satisfying to have something that actually just ...

So I have decided to reestablish my Patreon by eliminating tiers aside from the first two, and changing a bit of what each tier includes (nothing is really lost in either, but there is more to be gained on the process wrt to the second tier); honestly, I am really looking forward to pushing this experience to be the best for...
2021-10-28 01:42:24 +0000 UTC View PostOkay y’all - so my friends have tried to convince me to keep this thing going, and so here’s what I am going to do! Instead of shutting it down, I am going to ponder for a month on it, putting it on hold for that time (it shouldn’t pull any money from y’all for this coming cycle). After the month is passed, I’ll give my decision on whether to keep going, or to just drop it all.

2020-02-22 06:10:24 +0000 UTC View PostHi y’all.
I really wish it didn’t have to come to this, simply because I wish I had pushed myself to keep up posting and the like - since last I posted I’ve finished, published, and sold out of an entire book, and I have done a few drawings since (and am now preparing my second book). None of that ended up here, and for that I want to apologize. While I will be closing up shop here...

Hi y’all! I recently finished the cover to my upcoming comic book, MY LIFE TO LIVE, which is premiering at STAPLE! on October 12-13. The book is twenty pages, and I hope you’ll find it super worthwhile!
The cover is based off this super famous photograph of Jean-Luc Godard. I had thought abou...
2019-09-12 20:12:50 +0000 UTC View PostHey y’all. In the midst of working on my comic for STAPLE!, I still have a few other things to do, and one is the five mini prints I’ll be selling (mostly as a set, but I’ll sell them individually, too). Each one will be of a babe in a leather jacket, because of course they will be.

Here are some shots of new pages I am working on. I’m approaching this comic slowly but surely, and basically just trying to get the basis of each page knocked out in pencils and then move on, rather than spend my entire life getting a page right on the first go (I am a MAJOR perfectionist, and so this way keeps me actually progressing on pages, rather than getting bogged down in detail). 2019-06-20 07:10:53 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey y’all, here is an update! I have pencilled four pages of my upcoming comic, which I’ll be premiering at STAPLE! in October! Working on more today - hoping to have the short book finished by August, but we’ll see!

2019-01-29 03:11:37 +0000 UTC View PostSo I have “completed” the pencils on the comic commission, which was a pretty startling challenge, as I realized that fitting in whole narrative into one 9x12 Page was...well, it meant losing some of the detail I typically put into things. I’ll have it inked in the next day or two, but for now let me show you 1) how the page looked when I still had stuff to fix/wasn’t fully sure what I was...
2018-12-12 18:11:25 +0000 UTC View PostMy friend Meg has hired me to do a one-page comic about her friend Hayes as a Buffy-type who beats up on white men, which is going pretty well thus far! There wasn’t a lot of direction, apart from it being a scene of fighting going over one page, with a big splash of them as the last panel.
Here is the (admittedly quick) design for Hayes’ outfit

So unfortunately that comic IS going to have to wait a little bit, BUT at least the commissions that I am working on right now are having a tendency of being things that I am happier to draw (ya know, cool-looking people in leather jackets).
One of them is going to be a full comic book page (probably in landscape format). That’ll be this person kicking the shot out of a bunch of men while wea...

I send my sincerest apologies to each and every one of you who has continued to support me throughout this time, but also my incredible gratitude: Thank you.
Another reason why comics are so hard for me (unfortunately) is because I keep cyc...

I am doing this comic with Michelle Perez, and so here are some thumbnails for the start! I don't usually do thumbnails for any comics, but also, since my comics are not usually written beforehand, that kinda makes sense.
