I just wrapped up the packaging art for Alek Shrader's spooky-themed Barber of Seville project HOUSE OF BARTOLO. Alek will be launching the kickstarter campaign next week.

Drew these barns! Trying to get bolder with using vibrant greens, which I'm always very skittish with.

These guys!

Hello, friends! I wanted to let y'all know that I'm going to be signing and sketching at EPIKOS COMICS AND GAMES in Chattanooga, Tennessee tomorrow (Saturday, May 4th). It's a free event, and if you're in the area, I hope to see you! It starts at noon!

While few folks may pick up a comic solely because the lettering is good, BAD lettering can absolutely ruin a comic.

Emi Gennis did a WONDERFUL talk about lettering principles at CXC, and it's a must-watch for comic-makers learning their craft.

I can think of precious few lectures on comics stuff where I agree with every single point, but I agree with every single point on this one. I've considered making a balloon placement video, but now there's no need to, anything I might say is said here.

Found this process gif from a Beauty and the Beast stage show poster I did a few years back, thought I'd share!

If y'all need someone to cast a movie about late-stage US founder folk, gimme a holler

"Well, but how is this? I gave you the candlesticks too, which are of silver like the rest, and for which you can certainly get two hundred francs. Why did you not carry them away with your forks and spoons?"

It's the 40th anniversary of the release of Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind!

Hey there, Kentucky friends! I'm all set up and they're just opening the doors at Lexington Comic Con. Hope you'll swing by and say howdy if you're here!

Another drawing from Paris; at the foot of Montmartre, the Moulin Rouge.

(I didn't draw people in these, and I'm kinda on the fence about whether I ought've here, for scale; those plantpots are huge, and the only scale context is the small door in the bottom right at the ticket office)

lt's true that Hi has had a checkered past. But Ed here is an officer of the law twice decorated, so we figure it kinda evens out.

I spent some time in Rouen - more than I intended because a windstorm smashed up some railroad tracks and all departures were delayed until the following day. Here's a cafe in front of the train station where I was biding time for a few hours until they officially cancelled everything, theretofore only delayed.

Here's a drawing of the carousel on Montmartre, with the Basilica up on the hill behind it. Seems like they got rid of Amelie's payphone since the last time I was up there (2002).

Here's a bar around (if I remember) the Le Marais district, which is where I was staying

Couldn't go into Notre-Dame de Paris, of course, but I did walk around it a lot and look at what I could of the building, and the substantial renovation work to repair the damage from the 2019 fire.
