early design work for Brutus, Mabel & Kookoom in Mabel's Feather. Mabel went through a series of changes, but Kookoom & Brutus stayed quite similar throughout.

For mabel, the titular character of Mabel's Feather, a big design consideration was her feather - where could she carry it while still having it visible?

Designing characters for Mabel's Feather was a lot of fun! There is a lot of diversity in Indigenous folks, and it helped to start with figuring out where kookoom and mabel fell on several spectrums - especially relative ages and fashion senses.

Oh hey, I illustrated this book, for 4-8 year olds. It's a useful resource to introduce or continue conversations around Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls & 2-spirit people, Missing & Murdered Indigenous Relatives and parental loss. www.strongnations.com/store/12839/...

reminded of a scene from Terry Pratchett's Going Postal

“Do you understand what I'm saying?"
shouted Moist. "You can't just go around killing people!"
"Why Not? You Do." The golem lowered his arm.
"What?" snapped Moist. "I do not! Who told you that?"
"I Worked It Out. You Have Killed Two Point Three Three Eight People," said the golem calmly.
"I have never laid a finger on anyone in my life, Mr Pump. I may be–– all the things you know I am, but I am not a killer! I have never so much as drawn a sword!"
"No, You Have Not. But You Have Stolen, Embezzled, Defrauded And Swindled Without Discrimination, Mr Lipvig. You Have Ruined Businesses And Destroyed Jobs. When Banks Fail, It Is Seldom Bankers Who Starve. Your Actions Have Taken Money From Those Who Had Little Enough To Begin With. In A Myriad Small Ways You Have Hastened The Deaths Of Many. You Do Not Know Them. You Did Not See Them Bleed. But You Snatched Bread From Their Mouths And Tore Clothes From Their Backs. For Sport, Mr Lipvig. For Sport. For The Joy Of The Game.”
― Terry Pratchett

A hill I will die on: all white-collar crimes are violent crimes. It's just that the violence is removed from the perpetrator because the perpetrator is wealthy.

anyways, I still do comics. being in art school is strangely unconducive to making art sometimes

this odd pair were digitally illustrated, mounted on foamcore and then displayed on opposite sides of a gallery wall so that the frames aligned through the wall - creating a sort of liminal interstitial space within the wall. Stride Gallery, Passages show, The Land Holds Us collective, 2024
