Cappuccino in Space


I drew this up for my talented GirlAMatic pal Tara Tallan, creator of the sci-fi comic series Galaxion. Tara's Galaxion holds a special place in my heart as my first introduction to independent comic making. Back in '95 I was routing around the local "Comic Dungeon" and chanced upon her mini comic prints and was instantly inspired. Before that I'd always thought comics were only made by the big fancy production studios, not by individuals with access to a photocopy machine! Right after that I started making a whole bunch of my own mini print comics; a couple fan comics, then a short lived series of my own called "Closet Boy"... because he could travel to alternate universes through closets... yup!

... and then I went to college and stopped drawing plot-driven stories and just dabbled in internet gag strips. Weird!

...oh! And I didn't draw the earth, I swiped that from google.

Waverly Films



These guys crack me up so hard: Waverly Films

Marker Doodles



It's been quite a while since I cracked out the old Trias. The three Asian inspired doodles I did after watching non-stop Samurai Jack season 4, and for some reason I doodled the Easter-egg- Belladonna while watching Spinal Tap. Her dress looks like an evil bug face.

Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School

So I just started attending this awesome life drawing class; located in a bar! It plays fun music, you can drink yer face off, and the models are super interesting to look at! Today's was a very sassy Rubenesque 1920's style lady with wicked burlesque costumes and tons of tattoos. Next time I'll have to bring colour pastels, (I slapped on some quick colour on one sketch in photoshop).




Way more fun than school, people! Though I really do need a teacher to slap some technique into me, yarr!

Iggy Arbuckle stills
