Was waiting to get Frida out of the vet (she did a surgery two days ago) and suddenly I just hear someone “Oh no Frida escaped!!” and there comes Frida running towards us after pushing a heavy door open all by herself Never felt more proud of my dog committing jailbreak 🥹

"This page took me maybe an hour to complete... and this comic has about thirty pages... that means if I really buckle down I could get the whole thing done in a standard work week, two at the most..." <--- the reckonings of a misguided fool

How comics actually work: some pages take an hour and some pages take eight hours and they're not always the ones you'd think. There are sometimes entire weeks taken up by research that MUST be completed before you can progress. And you also must account for several days lost to the Horrors

Well, laid off from my part-time job today, so a reminder l'm open to work-for-hire, have pitches galore, and am very good at my job! Believe me, I have references! And if any of those references know of any opportunities, please consider recommending/reaching out to your boy!

Cooking with Monsters: Best Served Cold Cover

Still mentally here ❤️‍🔥🥀 man what a concert!!!! I’m so happy I got to see one of my favorite bands live, specially one I thought I’d never had the chance Shoutout to the Spanish MCR crowd, my pit neighbors were so fun and had the same level of enthusiasm/craziness I had

I think the beauty of Robert Eggers' hyperfixation is a bunch of creative people get disheartened because they think: 'I draw/write/create the same subject over and over and won't people get bored?' (I am also guilty!) But Eggers proves that people love the things you love and they'll want more.

"ugh another old stuff horror movie from Robert Eggers ugh" you wish you loved anything so deeply and productively

Wacom recently asked me to talk about why I make queer comics, and given there are multiple bills right now floating around in congress that are effectively "we will kill your livelihood if we get a sniff of queer" I had some pretty strong, simply feelings to relay.

these past weeks have been a ride but I just watered my new garden (we moved!) for the first time and maybe life is about these little moments (I love plants a lot ok? and watering plants is on my top 5 best feelings in life)

Coloring a DESTINY WALKER, FREELANCE WITCH chapter this morning. Coloring is my weakest comic making skill, but I've sort of found a way that works for me. So if you're interested in this sort of thing, here's how I do it --

I saw Marjane Satrapi speak about her work at Smith College 19 years ago, and she said something I have thought about and taught ever since when I teach comics. “I draw what I can’t write and I write what I can’t draw.“

as an animator i can't stress enough how important it is to take breaks and do activities that DON'T involve drawing read a book, watch a movie, play a game, learn how to knitt. you'd be surprised how quickly your creative juices get replenished by just enjoying yourselves
