I'm a huge advocate for working with cheaper drawing materials. It's my ardent belief that even the basest tools can yield a work of beauty in the right hands. Some time ago, I got my hands on a couple of EcoQua dot grid notebooks. The store I work at said to trash them because they… Continue reading Having a little fun with some cheaper drawing materials
Trying The Best I Can To Keep A Work Log
Earlier this year, I made an attempt at trying to keep a work log. I wanted to try and keep track of the actual time that I spend on projects. Until the task fell by the wayside, I think I was doing a fairly decent job of it. I'm always reading about how it's a good… Continue reading Trying The Best I Can To Keep A Work Log

A more appropriate term for this might be "vomit draft" but I really didn't like the thought of invoking vomit imagery… Continue reading A Little Sketch Story: An Immortal Reunion
Old Art Spotlight of the Fearless Fool: Jake Fox!
I have a lot of old art from throughout the years that I've never posted. As someone who's not chronically online, I just haven't habitualized good posting habits yet. This blog is probably a great a place as any for posting up old art and writing about it. In a way, it shouldn't be too… Continue reading Old Art Spotlight of the Fearless Fool: Jake Fox!
Unusual Comics Truth; Practical Growth from Years of Quitting
This is the final entry in a small series that initially started off as a post about recent updates. For this post, I'll actually be focusing on the comics themselves again. Specifically, comic pages from earlier attempts to start this Mage Punk "webcomic" that I've wanted to make since middle school. I've been working on… Continue reading Unusual Comics Truth; Practical Growth from Years of Quitting
