| Gore Squares! |
[19 Apr 2012|12:13pm] |
What is going on here?! 2 new books are debuting at Boston Comic Con and MoCCA?! Yeah, that's right, I've been busy, my friends!
What is Gore Squares? It is the 3rd issue of Four Squares, the experimental journal comic drawn by Maris Wicks, Joe Quinones, Tim Finn and myself. We choose a month, each draw a comic strip everyday, and put them together in this hefty little booklet, so you can see how we interact, live, and love.
See what I mean? It is brilliant. And just like I Swallowed the Key to My Heart #3 and Alone Forever 2, these books will be available for online purchase the 2nd week of May if you can't attend Boston Comic Con and MoCCA.

Guess what, guys? I picked up issue 3 of I Swallowed the Key to My Heart last night! Sadly there was a printing error, and the covers didn't end up getting printed on card stock, but I hate wasting paper, so since they're perfectly usable despite not being what I wanted, I'm just going to suck it up and hopefully it won't make too much of a difference to you, the loyal reader!
They look great, anyhow
Copies will be available for the first time this weekend at Boston Comic Con, and the weekend after that at MoCCA; please say HI if you're at either of those shows! And for the rest of you, this will go up for online order the 2nd week of May, so don't fret. To get you amped, here are the first two pages of this 26 page issue:

| Not Yet! - It's A Small World, Alcohol |
[04 Apr 2012|01:02pm] |
You guys, did you know that for some reason cassette tapes are relevant again? Me either, but apparently they are! I did the artwork for Not Yet!'s awesome cassette ep, and I'm super stoked with the finished product, not just art wise, but because the album rules too.
Go to John Wilkes Booth Records and grab one! Only 50 were pressed on clear green, so it's sure to be a collector's item!

| Masked Intruder: First Offense |
[31 Mar 2012|02:46pm] |
Hey friends!!
I got my copies of Masked Intruder's First Offense in the mail today, and I'm so excited to have been involved in this record. I drew the artwork for the 7", and although I was working with a limited color palette for a band that relies on color to distinguish it's masked members, it came out great (yeah, I'm humble)! Go to Hang Up Records to grab a copy, or 4, since it's pressed on Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green.

| Atomic Book/CSR anniversary art show |
[28 Mar 2012|11:30am] |
Hi friends (especially those of you in the Baltimore area),
The legendary Atomic Books is celebrating it's 20th year of business with a show of art related to their store, and hopping on that train is Celebrated Summer Records, which has been housed in the back of Atomic Books for a year or so now. As part of the festivities, CSR is having an exhibit of artists' and non-artists' representation of their mascot Thrash Cat: everyone is welcome to participate!!
Literally, anyone: anywhere, so if you click the above image, it will bring you to a 300dpi, downloadable version, which you can print out, draw on, and send to the address listed!! And have your art in a "real life" art show!!
Here is what I drew, which will be on display, as well as several other pieces I've done for past CSR shirts and fliers:
And if you live in the area, try to attend the festivities on April 6th, from 7-10pm, to see lots of art, and pick up the brand new CSR/LP collaboration t-shirt
Sadly I can't be in attendance to victimize Tony IRL, so please go in my stead! (but don't actually stab him, he's genuinely an ok dude).

| I Swallowed the Key to My Heart 3 debuts next month |
[21 Mar 2012|12:01pm] |
dearest Lizbians,
Thank you for being so patient with me for the last year and a half, while I worked up to writing and drawing the third issue of I Swallowed the Key to My Heart. I have completed inking it, and can now announce that it will debut in April at both Boston Comic Con and MoCCA! It will be available in my web$tore shortly after, as well as Alone Forever 2. And hopefully after that I will be able to jump back into posting comics online regularly, for you, my loyal army of lizites.

| quilt card |
[08 Mar 2012|11:19am] |
A few weeks ago I got one of the best presents of all time: my friend Claire Sanders made me an amazing quilt out of some old t-shirts of mine
I broke out my seldom used watercolors to paint her a card in response. My idea was to make a card where the front was the quilt, and the inside was the bed.
To accomplish this I cut a few inches off the top of the card's front, so you can see the pillows of the bed from the inside when the card is closed. I tried to replicate the quilt as best as I could with my limited painting ability
On the inside I drew my cats and I sleeping all comfy like, as we're oft to do. I even went as far as to draw the plaid flannel that was used as the backside of the quilt on the inside front of the card.
And as if it wasn't obvious, I used the back of the card to express my sentiments.
A valiant effort, but still meager in comparison with the quilt in question. You can read Claire's blog entry on making my quilt, complete with detail shots, here!

| STAPLE 2012 |
[29 Feb 2012|11:50am] |
This weekend I will be a guest at Austin's STAPLE! independent media expo, March 3rd & 4th. I'll be tabling all weekend, selling my wares, including the brand new Alone Forever 2, and hanging out with Mitch Clem and Amanda Kirk, who will also have some things for your to throw your money at. I will be speaking on a panel about Women in Webcomics with Mari Naomi and Monica Gallagher on Saturday at 3:30, so be sure to come to that if you want to see me have a violent allergic reaction to public speaking.
And speaking of allergic reactions to public speaking, here is an interview I did for the Staple podcast regarding my appearance.
See you in Texas!
