Art continues to be a hustle, but it’s the few hustles I like to take on. In the last months of summer, long after Blerd Bash and the like, I finished up many conventions. Many of these events are newer shows that I hadn’t attended before so I continue my tradition of finding fantastic spots to display and sell my work!

Some of my book is art I’ve posted, and others I haven’t, so if you have a weekend free come stop by the Zhou B Art Center!

Knife Foxes
The Knife Foxes are Nad Greentail’s pirate crew of miscreants. Many are deserters, drifters, and drudges from seedy corners of the world seeking easy fortune.
When not arguing with their self-appointed Tanuki Captain, they bumble around, hoping to catch victims unaware with their knives.
In this blog post, I talk about the long process drawing these knife fox bandits from paper to digital screen!

Later into the summer on July 20th, I’m returning to Lockport, IL for Comicopolis!

Continue readingFour New Social Media Accounts I post to as an Artist.
In wake of dumb bullshit happening on multiple social media sites, I again hear of newer ones that claim to be better and artist friendly. Promoting on social media doesn’t make a difference my sales online or offline at cons and art shows. Most of this hoop jumpin to social media accounts remind me that I’m being desperate. If I’m a nobody on my current pages, what makes me think I wouldn’t be a nobody on a new page?
