Elephant Town Chapter 1 (pages 4 & 5)
Based on a misunderstanding by me and my old housemate Ryan last year, except it took us... much longer to figure out what bogo was.
Elephant Town Chapter 1
Update number one!! Next few pages will be up next Monday. :)Hats off to patron Emily Wolf for picking what was in the frame: “An austere woman with a gazillion cats all over the place.” Low blow, Emily, you clearly know my weakness.(If you were wondering what the $3 tier patrons get to vote on, "what's in ...
Elephant Town Page Zero
Elephant Town officially starts Monday!! (Does "Page Zero" count as an update?!)Have you ever thought about something SO HARD you assume you've already told everyone else around you? That's what I've been doing. But I don't think I've told you guys about all of this! So, here's an overvi...
Dumb little comic, and a note about April…
I haven't touched a bra in a week. What's really stupid is, I've worked from home for 15 years now and never NEEDED to wear a bra, but this is the week that made me go "ah fuck it, why?!" Maybe it's solidarity with my fellow bra-abandoners suddenly working from home that made me finally kick the...
Hazel Jamie drinky animation
Figured I'd get straight to the animation I *wanted* to make. ;)If time were really money this would be a very expensive hobby! But I'm LOVING IT and doing these instead of regular daily drawings, so maybe I'll just restrict myself to little tiny animations that only take two hours? This took ALL MORNING an...
Baby's first animation!
I had this super talented Girl Scout in the comics workshop I taught last weekend, and she showed me a short animation she made (this is for some meme that I don't get because old, but check out the rest of her work, too, I love her characters!).I asked her what she used to animate it, she told me about FlipaClip, ...
Hourly Comic Daaaaaay!!
I was flying home all day Saturday, February 1st, which was Hourly Comic Day! I've never been awake for so many hours on Hourly Comic Day before. Which just means more panels, yaaaaay here we go!(I think Air France was on strike?)(My tea was also on strike.)Someone on Insta just informed me that this magical rainbo...
Omnis Linea Diem
**edit: decided to make this one public so people know what I'm sharing with $1+ patrons this month. This year? I sure hope I keep doing this all year!**I'm no Latin expert (or hobbyist for that matter), but that translates roughly to "a line every day." This (or something close to this) is something Mi...
Frivolity
Today while I was finishing a painting, I let myself catch up on Lucy Bellwood's delectable 20-minute audio ramblings that she shares with her patrons, and was both startled and tickled to discover that she mentions me several times throughout this particular ramble.At one point she was commenting on how I've b...

Caricature Week Day 1!!
Hey and hello! I'm back home after spending a week in Memphis for this year's International Society of Caricature Artists convention, my favorite week of the year!The week starts off with registration and breakfast on Monday, after which we storm the ballroom of whatever hotel we're infesting for the next f...
Laura Mae Watercolor Poster
Had a fun weekend fiddling with this poster design for my old pal Laura Mae Socks's record release show this coming weekend!If you're in the area this Saturday and you like old-style country music, drop in! The Folly is a pretty magical place. :)Also if you have any frisket/masking fluid advice, I'm all ear...
Comic: Stress Eating
I picked up a new hobby last night.If you’re white or you pass as white, your voices are needed now. There are a lot of people out there who can’t hear beyond the color of someone’s skin; let’s amplify those voices so they don’t miss a word.----------I made this comic to post to Instagram sooner rather than l...

The price of the physical book costs LESS THAN THE EBOOK VERSION, it's that cheap!!I'm posting this for my Patreon peeps for two reasons: one, because obviously I want you to hear about is asap (I'm late on promoting it ...
Book Progress!
It's about time I posted a progress report up here. :)For those who don't know, I'm in Portland, Oregon, on a bit of a writer's retreat (<-- singular possessive, it's just me who's retreating), pecking away at that graphic novel with no name, alongside fellow artists like Erika Moen, Lucy Bellwo...
Comic: Hitchin'
I'm never sure if little quiet stories like this deserve the time it takes to make them into a comic, but I figured that it was good practice for me on Procreate anyway.There's something about the east coast that I think makes people instantly react to strangers with a bullshit defense. And there's somethin...
Is There A Vet In The House??
Hmmm yeah I guess it's "in the house," not "in the audience" usually? Oh well, audience fits better!I'm looking for a seasoned veterinarian who would be happy to answer a bunch of questions about... secret cat stuff.Don't worry! It doesn't have to do with Pip or Ellie, or Flapjack, or an...

Little Linn
I spent the night at The Linney Residence, aka Lucy Knisley's house, and Linns snugged me real good.(On the off-chance you don't already ready Lucy's excellent comics, here is Lucy's take on Linney!)

Graphic Novel Progress
Last night I spent a few hours listening to podcasts and music while sketching up the secondary characters in the graphic novel I'm working on. It's weirdly difficult for me to write their dialogue without giving them faces first.Imagine if I wrote prose novels!If you've been a patron for awhile you already...

Hourly Comic Day 2019!
I participated in Hourly Comic Day on Friday, kind of! I was wiped out yesterday after teaching comics to Girl Scouts in the morning, so I kinda crashed when I got home. Figured I'd finish them all today. :)Here's Lucy Knisley's Hourly Comics from 2007 to 2018!!

I'm in LA! (And updates for November!)
I'm in LA and it's warm and I love it.I'm out here for Patrecon tomorrow and Saturday, and next week I'll be in San Diego for the annual ISCA caricature convention! Will I see any of you here?I was on the fence about doing ISCA this year because I'm devoting as much time as I can to writing this boo...
BEACH PARTY SKELETON COSTUME
It's no secret that I throw a pretty serious Halloween every year. This year we threw a blacklight party and I wanted my costume to glow, so a skeleton in a fluorescent bikini was the obvious answer.I could've paid $40 for a black bodysuit with a skeleton already printed on it, but instead I paid $20 for a blac...
Inktober #1: 304 West German Street
This inktober is gonna be a tough one for me this year! The book I'm working on is going to be very environment-heavy, and environments are NOT my forte. So I'm going to practice drawing houses, rooms, and other scenes for the rest of the month, mostly from Shepherdstown.This is the house that inspired the very...
