For St. Patty’s day this year, I’ll be doing live stunt drawing at The Mix, along with friend and artistic colleague Billis Helg, as part of the Stay Tuned St. Patty’s Party. The event features our longtime musical associates Landlord’s Daughter, as well as We Wrote the Book on Connectors, and classic TV show theme song rock cover band Stay Tuned.

Doors open at 8 PM and there’s an $8 cover. Also, due to the coinciding holiday, the show will be 21 & up (sorry kids).

My illustrative compatriots at the Bureau of Drawers have put together a free e-anthology which you can download here. Writer Adam Eivy has his entire first Sleep Deprivation Ninja story (with art by me) in the anthology, and a bunch of my other friends have their work in it too. The collection is already receiving positive press, prompting the Stranger’s Paul Constant to herald a return of the Seattle comics scene: “…after a few somnambulant years, the Seattle comics scene is back.” Also, the anthology has been featured on my favorite source of comics news, Tom Spurgeon’s The Comics Reporter. Neat! Go take a look at what we’ve done! (The cover art posted above is by Nikki Burch)

Late notice, but tomorrow night (February 24th) is my friend/fellow-artist Gina Siciliano’s book release party for her graphic-novella Summertime, an 88-page odyssey of “Sex and Violence, Punk and Love, Self-Destruction and Survival.” The party is at Left Bank Books in Seattle’s historic Pike Place Market at 7 PM. There will be snacks, drinks, and a discussion. Interested parties who can’t make the signing can still snag a copy of the book at the University District Comic Stop.

Here’s another page of blueline art for the Sleep Deprivation Ninja story. And yes, that’s a Hokusai wave, because the best things in life are stolen.

And here’s the final page of art, after I’ve had a chance to color it in Photoshop. I’ll have links to the entire webcomic once Adam posts it.

These are the inks for the previously posted page.

Coming Attractions.

Sun, 18 Dec 2011 01:07:02 -0800

First, if you’ve been following Jenna MacKrell’s webcomic Exemplars (with art by yours truly) you know that it’s about to wrap up its first story arc this Tuesday. I recently finished the art for the second story arc, which will debut in January. (Teaser featured above)

Also, I generally don’t use this blog as promotional device for work that isn’t my own, but my good pal Gina Siciliano has recently self-published her first graphic novella Summertime (two years in the making) and since she doesn’t have much of a web presence, I feel obliged to plug it a little here. You can get a copy of Summertime at Comic Stop University District in Seattle for $15, and I think Ms. Siciliano has some kind of release party in the works. Stay tuned.

Happy holidays, and all the best.

Myself and artist super-friend Billis Helg will be sharing a table this weekend at Seattle’s first-ever Short Run festival of local, small-press publications. The event will be held on Saturday, November 12, 2011 from 10:30 AM to 4:30 PM at the Vera Project. I’ll be selling some reprints of my comics and minis, and Billis and I have plans to unveil a collaboration we’ve been working on. Also, fellow artist-compatriots the Bureau of Drawers will be at the table next to us, so you’ll have a chance to see/buy some of the cool goods they’re selling. Stop by if you can!
