Also the other night Joe came up with the term Romantic Momedy.

Maybe we’ll find Atlantis or aliens or humanoids living in volcanoes, one day.

Here are some watercolor tests for a new comic I’m working on, one of a few I’m thumbing. I’m hoping to send some comics to newspapers like Smoke Signal, Kuti, Big Funny, Taffy Hips, Diamond Comics….there are so many cool newspaper-anthologies out there!

I’m happy Mr. Rob Clough gave my mini-comic, End of Eros, an honorable mention over at The Comic Journal’s 2009 Best-of list. His review of End of Eros was the first review I’d ever had, and I’m thankful he has the patience to take the time to read and write about such a wide variety of comics, even ones that aren’t totally polished.

It’s also nice to see so many White River Junction people (White River Junkies?) get a mention, too! Like… Beauty Patrol by Kubby, Sam ‘N Dan by Jeff Lok, Sugar Cube by Sam Gaskin, Woman King by Colleen Frakes, and of course Monsters by Ken Dahl.

Part 2 of End of Eros is up over at Top Shelf 2.0, and I like their description: “If you thought this story was weird in part one, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet! Parental discretion advised…”

And these illustration/thumbnails come from the second draft of a new comic. I had a fun time creating these images using the lasso tool and a Wacom tablet, which is my current method of drawing that excites me…I enjoy different materials every few months or so…. The final art will be a mixture of digital and collage, and the story is called First Flower.

Drawing quotes from Ryland Ianelli the other night, using Bryan Stone’s inks. Two good guys: it feels nice drawing at their kitchen table.

Tracin’ trees for the ‘Cable of Tontents.’

Here’s an image from my thesis packet, “Native Thumbs.” The names of all the mini-comics included in the packet will go in the middle.
