Happy New Years, My Dears!

I already have a New Year’s resolution: get my damn cards done in time for the actual holidays!

But I hope you all have a Happy New Year!

Oh, LinkedIn...

LinkedIn is great, but can get super annoying with the email blasts.  I like to think its just overly proud of me.

CTN Anxiety

I'm queasily excited about coming back to CTN Expo this year.

Sick Baby

A week and some change ago, I was expecting one of the most important work calls of my life thus far.  Almost to the second, that was when a virus Talia caught decided to make itself known.  The timing was uncanny.

FYI- she's all better now!

Super Besties

Another moment from the Batman/Superman Adventures that I always thought was really sweet.

Harley's Hyenas

My version of one of my favorite Harley moments- been wanting to draw this for a while!

You Ok, Tough Guy? Take 2

Redid and old scruffy sketch of this favorite moment between Bats and Wondy because I loved it so much.  Also, someone asked for this on a t-shirt, so BOOM.

One Glove Lady Pinup

Been poring through my Shane Glines books lately and shouting "how do he DO it??" every two minutes.  And here's a pinup inspired by that.

Clean/Tween Animation Demo

I was asked to make an animation tutorial, and that will happen someday, but for now I slapped together a demo out of some animatin' I captured the other day.  This is mostly about the clean/tween stage of animation- fuuuuun!

Updated Cupojo.net!

Its been a while since I did anything to my website.  I'd love to overhaul it, but just updating it a little took more time than I thought.  (Took me hours to remember how I made the video gallery work in Muse!  I had to code- bleah!)  But this should do for now.  If you find any broken links, tell me in a few days, because right now I'm too pooped to look at it anymore.

Merch Sale!

Another sale!  Shop my Redbubble store and get 20% off with code “20off” on Monday Oct 24th!

New Demo Reel Coming!

Threw down on some animatin’ for my new demo reel.   Couldn’t think of a better way to end it...  Posting tomorrow!  Er..what time is it?  Hm..well, later today I mean!

Pinup Pins

Decided on some bubble girlies to make into pins for CTnx.

Small Detail

Sometimes the smallest detail can just flummox me.  Give up and move on!

Broke Hearts

I had one thumbnail I wanted to expand upon, but can’t seem to get any art working!  Hopefully things will click into gear soon.

Girl in a Big Red Hat

Grubby sketch to loosen up.

Pin Up Sketches

I want to make some more merch for CTNx next month- therefore pin up sketch time!

Homestar Runner!

“Oh man, this is getting pretty freakin’ weird.  As soon as this blue chick pays me my five bucks, I am outta here, man.” 

Yes, that is my Homestar Runner fanart from 2002.  Apologies for the unreadable text, this was done in the dark ages before I understood...anything. Grimaceable, but necessary to illustrate my point: I was pretty big into Homestar Runner. Last Friday, I had the privilege of attending the Homestar Runner Anniversary Show and meet internet legend Matt Chapman, and even have a nice little chat about animation!  Thank you Homestar for the incredible laughs and for the inspiration to stay independently true to yourself.

Monkey Rag Hits One Million Views!

Didja Ever Get The Feeling You Was Bein' Watched?

Its been a couple years since I finished "Monkey Rag" and put it online.  I periodically check up on it, see how its doing, yet somehow I missed the milestone of it passing its one millionth view.  Thank you to everyone who has viewed it!  If you have the inclination, please check out the merch you can purch'.  I am not done with the characters, and any show of support is appreciated more than you can know.

Bubble Girlies

Just some girlies in bubbles.

No Rest

When you get an idea... 

"Oh My God- I'm A Mom" Sketch Book is Online!

Available for purchase online!

Its finally here!  My latest sketch book is stuffed to the gills with drawings and comics I've done in the past year or so.  With a title like "Oh My God.. I'm A Mom" you might be wondering what it could possibly be about.  Well, ever since I first became preggers, the theme of babies and motherhood has popped up in my work from time to time.  Just a tad.  To be honest, drawing about my experiences helped me keep my sanity, or at least what little I had to begin with.  This book chronicles the sweet highs and bewildering lows of becoming a new mom, and hopefully you'll find it full of humor, sassafras, and plenty of "d'aaawwww...lookit the baby!"  If you've ever enjoyed or shared my drawings like the ones below, have a look-see!  This mama would be ever so obliged.

Batgirl!

Batgirl!  In a mish-mash of all the styles I love, the old BTAS costume, the sleek Bruce Timm "Red Sky Batman" redesign, a dash of Lauren Faust, and hint of Darwyn Cooke.

Weird Kabuki Ice Ghost

Still messing around today- this time with some Kyle T. Webster brushes.  I guess this is some sort of kabuki frost ghost…?  I'm way outside my comfort zone when it comes to any kind of painting, be it practical or digital, but I'm determined to get this figured out someday.

Warm Up Sketches

Some more warming up sketches.

Last of the Jos...

Finishing up the new Jos for my banners and such- spent too much time of this and just need to  be done at this point.

New Book of Sketches Coming!

I've been working on a new book of sketches and I'm almost done!  Hopefully it'll be ready by early September.  One guess as to what its about.

Another new avatar to update the portfolios 'n such.

New Avatars

Doing up some new avatars for banners and such.
