You overhear the strangest things sitting in coffee shops…
More warm-ups. Sometimes my legs just don’t work the way I want them to.
Some more watercolor doodles! I can’t seem to stop myself these days.
Aaaand a comic. Because I can’t resist and GOD. DAMN. the wind was cold yesterday.
Also: I got a Tumblr because it seemed like a smart move. You can check it out over here. I’ll probably post more silly doodles there in the future.
Too busy for more blogging, but keep yer eyes open for more illustration & comics later this week!
Thanks for reading, everyone.
Kickin’ it in San Francisco this weekend for the SF Fusion Exchange. Gonna be doing a lot of dancing and not a lot of comics, but at least there’s another update.
(To be concluded next week.)
Aaaaaand part two. (Happy New Year!)
First off, happy festive season to all you blog-following types. It’s been a sunny one down here in California, but soon enough I’ll be back in the Pacific Northwest slogging away at the drawing board.
In the meantime, I’ve been remiss about getting these files optimized for the web, but here, at last, is my most recent project! This was a challenging story to tackle, since it deals with my grandmother’s battle with Alzheimer’s. I wanted to attempt a full-color rendering technique and practice my watercolor skills (still woefully lacking) while sticking to a relatively simple page layout. I believe the result is more illustrated story than comic, but it was a learning experience nonetheless. I’ll post the story in four updates of a few pages each, since they’re so minimal. Here’s the first!
A guilt-induced post, since things have been rather quiet here. Many a deadline rearing its ugly head, but more comics to come in the next couple weeks. As for the dragons, I churned this out a few months back while brainstorming ideas for my thesis. Did you guys draw dragons when you were younger? What’s the deal with that?
And here we have it: the dramatic conclusion to Fenton’s 4-page spotlight.
And that’s that! Since this comic was completed in a rapid dash for a deadline there’s still a lot more painting to be done to bring it up to snuff, so I may update these images sometime in the future with cleaner meaner versions. But for now, in typical style, my next comic will probably be about something completely unrelated to this! Get ready for excitement and…I don’t know. Manatees? You tell me.
In the department of exciting news, I have a piece in the upcoming Top Secrets-themed issue of Portland’s own Stumptown Underground! This is my first anthology inclusion so I’m extra thrilled and would love to see your grinning faces at the release party this Friday. The shin-dig goes down at In Other Words (14 NE Killingsworth St.) this Friday from 7-9pm. Hope to see you all there!
