Just a quick update here with an ink portrait. This was done with a size 0 and size 3 brush.

Inktober

All my Inktober work, #s 3 through 6 on one page for your viewing pleasure. Yes, that is Leslie Knope you see up there. I've been watching lots of Parks and  Rec.

Outlines

In case anyone wondered what it looks like when I start the rough outline for a comic. Spoiler alert: it's this.

Characters

These are two characters I've been developing. Their names are Aimee and Sasha, and they've given me an excuse to break out the ink brush and try Inktober. 2 down here, only 29 to go!

Here's a painting (acrylic) from a couple of months ago that I realized I hadn't posted here. I think I have too many blogs... Clearly the solution is to have more blogs, right? In any case, I'll be posting some more recent work up here. Now that I no longer have a day job, I'll be focusing a lot more on, you know, my actual career. As opposed to working 60 - 70 hours a week, eating, and sleeping.

This is a little cartoon of what I looked like around age 7. I hated shoes and loved snap guns. And my mom dressed me in really frilly clothes. Also, I wanted to grow my hair out so long that it touched the floor.


And this will be a spot illustration! I'm thinking ink and photoshop.

Aftershock

So! Remember the earthquakes in Japan? I know you all do. This summer (we're looking at July or August) a comic anthology entitled "Aftershock" will be digitally released by Topshelf. I am a contributor, so I'd like to take the time to tell you all to buy it! Proceeds go towards relief for the earthquakes, which people still need (it's only been a couple of months).

Here's a page from the 3-page short I submitted:
