My first try at “arty” pumpkin carving. It was supposed to be Bill Evans but I don’t think it looks like him. On account of the lower half of his face the likeness was compromised due to the curvature of the pumpkin. My good friend Craig Solomon suggests I learn to use displacement maps in [...]
I have had pieces in several art shows lately but this is the first one that is exclusively my stuff. For the month of September 2012 my work is displayed at Interzone There are about 18 Tix-Comix comics up as well as some non comic artwork, including several paintings, some drawings, digital mosaics, and some [...]
I did some fan art which is posted on Formal Sweatpants >> Draw the Rabbit. He wanted fans to draw his logo guy (a disheveled man in a filthy pink rabbit suit). It isn’t really a comic, just a sketch of the guy sitting on the side of the road wondering how he got there. [...]

I am signed up to assist with Ella Rhoades’ local trash receptacle mosaic beautification project , which will be built by volunteers. I also have my own plans for some mosaic projects built from recycled material but we need your help! These [...]
Bearman is one of the best human beings I know. And his political cartoons are damn funny too. He is having the fourth annual fan challenge. For every thing the fans do to push the Bearman brand, he gives money to charity. I am a huge Bearman fan. HUGE! So I saved my produce stickers [...]
I went to Stumptown Comics Fest in Portland on Saturday the 28th. This fest is really all about comics, and not so much about gaming. It was a great little bike ride up the Springwater Corridor, on past OMSI and then up the east side of the river on the Esplanade. It was really cool [...]
Wouldn’t it be fun to attach a rope to a pickup and let it tow you on your skateboard? Oh yeah, it’s a barrel of laughs until the skateboard slips out from under you. Do not try this at home. My daughter Ellie and I conceived and staged this photo for a competition in the [...]
You might have noticed that my avatar for commenting is a runner being pursued by bees. That stems from an incident in 2009 when I was attacked by a swarm of pissed-off bees while out running and I’m not really sure why. Anyway 50 or so stings was enough venom to put me into anaphylactic [...]
In the never ending quest for self promotion, I occasionally read blogging articles. Like anyone, I’m a sucker for lists, so I fell into this article: 10 signs your content sucks It is so radically different from the Eleven signs your blog sucks article I wrote three years ago. My article was broader, and mentioned [...]
Woot! I discovered a “collective” of women comic creators called Tomgeeks. Basically, if you are a woman artist or writer and put up the Tomgeeks banner, you can be in it. I use the word collective in quotes because they don’t provide hosting or anything, they just put up a banner that links to your [...]
