The first image here is a page from Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s Batman: Year One. The other four are my self-directed final project for my experimental comics class. I thought it’d be fun to take a page from such an iconic book and, without changing the dialogue or basic thrust of the action, redraw the page in the styles of other recognizable comics (Tintin, Adventure Time, Garfield, and shojo manga). It was fun seeing what the new styles did to the page, and a great drawing exercise! Plus, I got to draw more kawaii Batman. Awwww yeah.
Hey guys! Finals are a thing right now so art posts might be pretty scarce for a few weeks. Soooo, I thought I’d give you a sneak peek at something I’m working on. This is my rough for the first page of a short book called Gregory the Dumb Lil’ Monster. I’ll be making both screen printed and digital copies of the book, so look forward to process posts in the next couple weeks.
This week I tried printing a repeating pattern onto fabric for the first time. Just about everything went wrong in the process of making this thing but for a first attempt I think it turned out okay. Also, ghosts. Wheeeeeeee~
Wait, I’m on Memebase?
I was just informed that one of my pokemon/doctor who doodles has suddenly reappeared on the interwebs-

No idea when this happened or who submitted me to the site, but thanks mystery submitter! I actually had a really crappy night at work, so this was a great pick-me-up at the end of a long day. Oh internet, you make me feel so loved.
Remember this comic? Welllllll, I’m gonna have some copies of it for sale at MCAD’s mini-comics con, so it just got a cover! A Star Wars cover. Because.
I finally figured out how screen printing works, huzzah! These were for a print-swap project. Everyone in class made a 5x7” print based off the word cosmic, and once everyone’s finished we’ll trade prints. I’m a huge nerd and decided to do a tribute to Jesse Cox and his lord and savior The Great Space Butterfly. Most of the edition will be going towards the swap, but I have a few extras. Some will be going up for sale (shoot me a message if you’re interested), and the first (my favorite of the edition) will be going to Mr. Cox. His videos have been some of my favorite background noise during all the long hours of arting since I started at MCAD, so I figure this is the best way I know how to say thank you. :D
