I officially started nursing school this semester, which has been pretty great and hard. Mainly its a lot of work and doesn't leave me time for much else, like drawing, but I still squeeze in my weekly comic for the flagpole. The problem is now that I'm in school and don't do anything besides study, I don't have much else to talk about, as can be seen here:

Ive recently also started playing Dungeons and Dragons with a group of friends who I will not shame by naming. My character is a Dwarf Cleric Princess who has given up the crown and joined the clergy in order to have adventures and see the world... as can be seen here:

The semester ends in just a few weeks and I hope to get some solid arting in over the winter break.

I started renting a studio space this summer with two friends of mine. Its really great to have a space that is dedicated to making art and to be surrounded by people who are so talented every time I want to work. Heres a picture of my space:

Ive been very slowly inking a comic I drew about a year ago in Argentina. Its about some cats in a cemetery. Here are a few examples of inked pages:

I'm really excited about this project but its also a little frustrating to revisit something you haven't worked on in a very long time. All the ideas I had about it now seem faded and kind of weird.

I went to a comic convention in Charlotte a couple weeks ago called "Heroes Con". It was really fun to meet people and sell my wares. A lot of my friends were selling original art and suggested that i do the same but all I had were my minis, so on the drive up there I decided to take some old photographs I had randomly brought and turn them into pictures of batman:

I also drew a few weird faces like this one:

None of these things sold but it was fun to be doing something new. If you want to see the batman pictures ive been uploading to my tumblr page here: FIVETHOUSANDFACES

FLUUUUUKEEEE!!!

Rain Barrel

I was recently asked to participate in a a local charity auction to benefit the Athens Green School Program. Find out more about the event facebook page HERE. Its happening March 30th at Terrapin Brewery. Here are some pictures of the rain barrel that I made for the auction:

remember chalk boards?

here are a couple of illustrations I made for the cover of the flagpole. It was during the start of the school year so the theme was "back to school". The first illustration is a typical elementary classroom from the 60s and the second is a typical classroom from the not too distant future. The colors look pretty crazy on a the internet. They didn't print that bright.

these are some horrible faces i drew while manning my table at OktoberFluke this past weekend. Its fun to play around with water colors but i have tons to learn.

mace my face

this hurt sooo bad...

cemetery

this is the first page ive inked for a new comic im working. Its about some cats that live in a cemetery. the cemetery is based on a place i visited many times in Argentina called Cementerio Recoleta. It was full of stray cats.

jury duty

I have a weekly comic in "The Flagpole" which is the local newspaper here in athens. The comic is mostly about living in athens and random things that happen to me every week.

i got picked for jury duty last week.
