I’m actually going to pass on this year, for a variety of reasons that generally include wanting to focus on personal art improvement & the potential of moving in the spring, which equals money. Colossalcon hasn’t been very lucrative for me the last couple years, & while I do have more/new work to show and sell this time around, like I said, I’m going to pass. See you at Tekkoshocon in April and possibly Youmacon in November!

 “Gas Mask Pride” steampunk portrait it done! :D Available as 8.5x11 and 11x17 prints! I  Hellooooo, Dolly! New print, available in 8.5x11 and 11x17! I plan on setting up an online shop so
I had to draw glowing bunnies because Coey’s got a sweet Sherlock shirt for sale soon! :D “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” -Margaret Mead Wednesday, January 11th is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day. To participate, we formed the Comic Creators for Freedom– a group of over 100 comic book creators who volunteered our artistic talents to raise money and awareness for this cause. You may not know it, but there are currently 27 million enslaved people worldwide- more than double the number of enslaved Africans during the trans-Atlantic slave trade. UNICEF estimates that 1.2 million children every year are sold into slavery, most of it sexual. The US Department of Justice estimates 16,000 victims of human trafficking are brought into the United States every year. Unlike slavery in the past, what is happening today is happening in secret. It won’t end until awareness is raised, and people like you and me take a stand. So here’s what we did: each creator contributed an original drawing of one of our own female characters, and combined them into a single wallpaper image! The wallpaper features characters from all over the web, including Girls with Slingshots, The Dreamland Chronicles, Kukuburi, Earthsong Saga, Looking for Group, Love and Capes, The Dreamer, and tons more! Donate today to download this unique, once-in-a-lifetime wallpaper. The Donations Drive will last for two weeks, from Monday January 9th – 20th. All proceeds will be split evenly between Love 146and Gracehaven House- two organizations working on rehabilitation of victims and prevention of this crime. To learn more about the CCA visit www.comiccreatorsforfreedom. To learn more about the problem, visit http://love146.org/slavery. (Note: contains adult themes and actual accounts of sex slavery.) Below is a preview of the wallpaper (Rachel’s in the bright green coat riiiight next to the blue logo box). Please donate to an amazing cause!
More work from work (from work from work from work). Look, Ma, no outlines!
