October Experiment: One Panel A Day 21 (Belated)

I realized I'm starting to draw certain types that are versions of one character or another, sort of like an ongoing subconscious casting call. A drawn out (ha ha) process of designing the protagon...

The High Cost of Loathing (Four-Panel Comics)

The "loathing" part in the title is an exaggeration for comedic purposes. I like myself more often than I don't these days. Life's a work in progress.

Eyes that have seen things. Or are seeing things. 

It's possible to come out of the tunnel, and into the light, only to find another tunnel before you. Our path is a series of tunnels, t...

There's a place for us

A time and a place for us

Hold my hand and we're half way there

Hold my hand and I'll take you there

Somehow

Someday

October Experiment: One Panel A Day 17 (Belated)

This panel has been sitting for a long time. I would take it out and kibbitz with it, get annoyed and consider tossing it, but then rework it and put it back into the box to repeat the routine a da...

Dissolution. But at what point in the nightmare? 

I don't think this turn of events is enough to balance out whatever else has been happening. But it may provide some relief for some ind...

Well, sort of. I mean, I jazzed it up a little. But it's sort of true. Kind of.

This one's been sitting in the card box for a while because I couldn't bring myself to leave the background blank. But I've been overworking so many backgrounds and textures on so many of the index...

Life has gotten in the way of work quite a bit these past few weeks, so several plans for the Patreon have been pushed around. I hope to address that asap.

October Experiment: One Panel A Day 9

Sometimes I finish up a panel for the Experiment that's based on another panel, with the idea of eventually finding a story link between them. And sometimes the original panel is unfinished, so pos...

October Experiment: One Panel A Day 8

Sometimes I draw a panel in stages. I quit after a while and put the card back in the box to work on later. I put this one back and took it out six or seven times. I usually juggle a batch that are...
