Little Filler
I'm feeling a little under the weather. Luckily Pip is the best hot water bottle.Elephant Town will update later on Monday, after I let my body sleep off whatever's ailing it. (It's probably just allergies, but I'm not taking any chances!)
Elephant Town Chapter 4 (pages 1-3)
Did I say you'd meet Miranda this week? Well, you meet Miranda's hand. ;)
Chapter 4 starts October 5th! And, general catch-up stuff. :)
Hey gang! Miranda's chapter is coming up next, and I decided to give myself an extra week to work on it. So, no update this Monday; we'll start Chapter 4 on October 5th.Originally I pictured Miranda's chapters being 100% traditional, painted in watercolor and gouache, but I know that a) would take me way to...
Elephant Town Chapter 3 (pages 19-21)
I just hopped out of my warm bed to re-write the text I sleepily wrote below this update, as it was misleading! All I meant to say was, a week was a long time to drag out this proposal and her response... but, here we are.
Elephant Town Chapter 3 (pages 16-18)
Google translate for spoilers/wait a week for no spoilers. ;)Meighan's favorite word in Spanish is "mantequilla." By which I mean, my favorite word in Spanish is "mantequilla."(Runner up is "hablabamos" because it's the Bob Loblaw of Spanish words.)
Link to Studio Tour from Saturday!
Hey pals! Huge thanks to everyone who hopped on the livestream yesterday, and patiently waited for Ol' Technical Difficulties Corsetto over here to get it rolling.I couldn't figure out how to cast from my phone (anyone who would like to school me, please do), so the hour-plus-long tour was done on my laptop. Bu...

Meighan's Spanish isssss about as good as mine.That established, special thanks to patron Kier for helping me fix up the Spanish in this chapter! If you know Spanish, the next update will be a breeze for you. If not, Meighan will probably help you out. ;)Hope a lot of you are having the same beautiful weather we...
Live at 8pm tonight! Pencil to Pencil
Hey gang! I'll be a guest on my pal Jamar's show Pencil to Pencil tonight at 8 pm, and I just found out that it's LIVE and you can ask QUESTIONS!The show is mostly shop talk (my faaaaaave), so if you have questions about the creative process, what pens I use, my ideal studio temperature, how to get your cat...
Vacuum (and a little life update)
This comic is so obvious I almost didn't make it, but it's my reality!That, and I realized that I never made a post here about losing Ellie last month. If you're someone who doesn't follow me on Twitter or Instagram, maybe you missed that, and I'm sorry to catch you up so late! I feel like my cats p...
Elephant Town Chapter 3 (pages 9-12)
Partially true story, back when some friends worked at a hippie restaurant in my hometown. A patron sent back a bowl of hummus because it was giving off "bad vibes." The waiter politely returned the bowl to the kitchen, had his coworkers hurl insults at it, and brought the same bowl back to the patron, who was ...
Bench Painting!
This is the kind of stuff I share with my $5+ patrons, but since I skipped a week of Elephant Town to work on this, thought I'd share it with all of ya. :)Last week I got busy with some community art stuff, mainly painting a bench. (My town is setting up more outdoor seating to encourage more take-out orders in tow...
Elephant Town Chapter 3 (pages 6-8)
Corks should be outlawed and all wine should be twist-offs.Also, guys, eat your food it's getting COLD.---Just realized it might be nice to have links to the previous pages so you can refresh your memory! Here's the previous three pages, and here are the first two in case you wanna revisit them.
taking a week off for my community... and sleep
I HATE to rob you guys of an Elephant Town update for any reason, but I currently feel like this molting cicada, and you deserve better than a comic colored by a squishy weird-looking bug with wings that resemble my "clean" laundry pile.In short, I agreed to too many community projects this month I knew I'd...
Come watch me paint (from 6 feet away)!
What's better than watching someone paint online over Zoom? Watching someone paint in person, obviously. And you can do it tomorrow if you're willing to visit the eastern panhandle of West Virginia!Tomorrow (8/15) starting at 9 am*, my friend Emily and I will be painting scenes on two benches that'll be pla...
Elephant Town Chapter 3 (pages 3-5)
Berto has dreams. Big, tiny dreams.Thanks to CompaniaHill for suggesting Chicken Cacciatore, a dish I'd never heard of and was tickled to learn the pronunciation of, way back when I asked my $3 patrons for an impressive meal to make on a pair of hot plates. Honestly it sounds like an impressive meal with a full kit...
DRAWING LIVE tonight at 8 Eastern for Super Art Fight!
Hey friends! Just a heads-up, I'll be drawing potentially horrible things in a Super Art Fight battle tonight online a little after 8 pm, if you wanna come watch! It's just 20-30 minutes, it's free, and if nothing else, it's guaranteed to be entertaining.Here's the link; it'll be on Twitch!If yo...

This is Berto. His apartment is real cute and everything he cooks is good.
Elephant Town Chapter 2 (pages 23-24)
Well, Paul's had a long day hasn't he.That wraps up Paul's chapter! Next week's update will probably also be a short one, depending on how much I can get ahead. Either way, you'll get to meet at least one of the two of my favorite characters. I hope ya like 'em. :)

Few domestic pet peeves are worse than an unlined kitchen trash can.(Those forum replies are mild compared to what people actually post, btw. You're welcome!)
Elephant Town Chapter 2 (pages 15-18)
Feel free to use the hiss panel as "a mood." (Do we still say "a mood?" Am I old now?)Special thanks to my interactive patrons for rolling the dice for me on the cat's actions! If y'all hadn't been so pro-purring, you would've just gotten biting, scratching, and/or hissing. So you can th...
Elephant Town Chapter 2 (pages 12-14)
I'd ask what kind of person throws out a fortune cookie but it would be rude to shame people who just don't like orange-flavored cookies with potential curses in them.Thanks to everyone who voted NOODLES, and, more specifically, lo mein, in the last story poll! You were right, noodles was the right answer becau...

Credit to Luke for suggesting, of all things, a Virgin Mary bust to get knocked over into the basket o' bras.The thrift store that this is based on opened back up last week, and when I dropped in, lo and behold:It's like a thrift shop requirement!This whole chapter is pretty quiet, which means the pages might b...

Enter: Paul.And that angelic girl at the desk. I don't know her name. I wonder if Paul does...I colored these in Procreate, and after working on them for the whole day I can't tell if the colors look different or if this is exactly what they would've looked like if I'd done it in Photoshop. I *can* tell...
A small delay
It’s actually been a dumb TWO weeks, but hey, I’m out of the sling now!The broken body* thing set me back a lot, but I would have finished today’s update if BOTH of my computers hadn’t broken today (luckily, only with Photoshop!). On the bright side, I’m learning how to use Procreate to finish these pages! I...
Elephant Town Chapter 1 (pages 16-end) *updated*
**UPDATED** I'm adding a selection of the still images below, for those who aren't feeling the GIFs!That wraps up chapter one!I decided to make these a set of animated GIFs instead of separate pages, so if you usually read the updates in your email, you'll want to click the link to take you to the Patreon p...

No matter what kind of talented monkey feet you have, the lamp switch will always get the better of you.

If you've ever been really cheap about your blinds you know exactly what kind these are.I made a little how-to post for that panel where Bryan's looking at the picture for my $5 patrons, to show you how I tackle reflections! If you read it, pretend it took me all week to figure out how to do it because that is ...

Kris is such a troll.Fun fact, the term "WIFI" was coined as a pun on the term "hi-fi" (high fidelity), but wasn't technically meant to abbreviate "wireless fidelity." So WIFI just kinda means... WIFI.Special thanks to patron Margaret Oliver for picking the movie A New Leaf with Walter Matth...
