heartfelt moment ... my page for Dune issue 103 (released June 2026). Created at Hugo House in Seattle, WA. Dune is a monthly event/zine where you have 3-4 hours to write/create a comic or illustration and turn it in to be included in the next zine. #comix #zines

"a new leaf" ... my 2-page contribution to the 100th issue/gathering of Dune. Created at Hugo House. During a standard Dune you have 3-4 hours to write/create a comic or illustration and turn it in to be included in the next issue of Dune. For the 100th issue we were given 8 hours. #zines #comix

Dropped off some copies of my Lost in the Dunes zine at @pushpullseattle.bsky.social in Ballard's free zine stand. There is also one last copy of CBA vol 72: Weird Forest on sale. This volume of CBA features my longer folk horror comix Sugar Hollow along with a collection of international artists.

Are you attending the Dune Issue 100 event today at Hugo House? I made a little zine reprinting some of my contributions over the years and reflections on living in a world where Dune exists. Feel to grab a free copy from me. #comix #zines

Splitting my time between old and new material while laying out a book. Part of that is archiving a body of older work. Today is a throwback to a page created for Dune 61 back in April of 2018. The Grave Digger's Bad Day. Micron and blue pencil ... drawn at the long-gone Cafe Racer in the UDistrict.

. UPDATE: Our Grand Opening has been moved up to 10am this Saturday to accommodate the planned protests. We will be distributing FREE artist-designed 11"x17" and 8.5"x14" cardstock signs throughout the day. Zine making, buttonmaking, and live music will go on as scheduled from 12p-5p. See you then!

Three screenprinted patches are binder-clipped side-by-side to a clothes hanger. The fabric appears to be brown tweed or similar. On it is printed in large, blocky, stylized letters: "melt ICE". The outer two are positives (black lettering), the middle one is a negative (black field of ink with non-printed lettering within).
