Here’s my first year film from Calarts! About a girl who’s perception of the people around her is distorted after receiving an upsetting text.
I didn’t devote as much time as I wanted to animating it because of other LIFE events, but it was an amazing learning experience and I’m hoping that at least one person out there will laugh at it!

I made a mini-comic answering the question I get asked the most; “How do I get GOOD at drawing?” I hope someone finds it useful. I had fun drawing it!

I’m usually in the mindset of the top picture, but every once in a while that bottom one sneaks up on me

I was gonna make Emmy draw this but she said no so I drew it myself.
I’ve never drawn a comic before!

This is what happens when I’m stuck in a waiting room with a ballpoint pen and shitty notebook paper, I guess. Drawn from memory, unfortunately. Will looks so fucking tired I’m so sorry D:

In light of recent nonsense that I was dragged into because I’m “a girl” and I make comics for a living, I thought this older comic was worth re-posting.
Women make and read comics, and we’re doing so in ever-increasing numbers.
(Oh, and the “Comics are a man’s world” quote was taken from the comments section of an article on Wired. That is literally what a dude said, “comics are a man’s world.” I mean, what?)

A big drawing of the city of Lisbon, Portugal, which I did for Light Gray Art Lab’s “In Place” exhibition. Lisbon, from my research, appears to be populated by cuties and wizards and Ghibli cars.
You can check out all the work for the show here, and you can buy prints of this guy in their shop.
how does he colour like that? Imma say … MAGIC.

how i’ve been feelin’ lately
It’s a bit comforting to know that someone else feels the same way.
Oh man, 19-year-old-me totally relates to this. And as a former worried-19-year-old-artist turning 30 at the end of the month I gotta say DON’T BE SO HARD ON YOURSELF GUYS!!!! If you keep drawing, practicing, learning, putting your stuff out there and working towards your goals, you’ll get there. Maybe not right this minute, maybe not as fast as you’d like, but the more life you live, the more people you meet, the more experience you gain, you’ll find those doors opening when you’re ready for them. And if they don’t, you’ll start building your own doors. Don’t beat yourself up if you’re not there yet. Keep drawing, keep learning, and try to enjoy the ride!
When you’re 19, 19 feels super old. But you’re really, really not. You don’t have to have your path set by then. I remember being 19 and thinking if I didn’t meet my future wife that year, I’d be alone forever. If I didn’t have a major book deal by then, I’d never make it. If I didn’t go there or do that or meet so-and-so, I never would. Fuck, 19. I was still a wee thing, making mistakes that didn’t ruin my life and missing opportunities that ended up being replaced by other opportunities.
If I’d have my life set in stone by the time I was 19, if I had to follow that path forever, I wouldn’t be doing the awesome things I’m doing now. They only happened because of brand new things I picked up long after I left my teens.
I’m 24 and barely know what I’m doing. I stress about it sometimes, but all you can do is just keep working.
I’ve been feeling like this a lot lately.

Vincent Van Gogh - ‘In spite of everything’
this is beautiful
I have a lot of deep and personal feelings about this. It is going to take me a minute, the wind has been knocked form me.

Kevin Smith: Criticism vs. Creation -S.I.T
This is worth watching if you’re an artist because you can decide, as imperfect your work is it’s yours, you used your time, put your personal thought to it and you decide the rules, If you don’t like something then just go and create something you like instead, why do you need it to be canon? You just need that something to exist so you can like it and you can make that happen, just create and share it if you work on your own stuff and create, and equivocate and emote someone, that’s the greater gift and if it comes with money, the merrier ;) So, This sums my thoughts exactly. I’m glad that guy (who’s name I’ve no clue) asked about it, thanks man!
Thanks to my friend Hyoga for sending me this.
I haven’t seen any of Kevin Smith’s movies or read any of his comics but this sure makes me have a lot of respect for him.

Early Hotel Transylvania character design by Fabien Mense.
Oddly enough I really love this bold design much more than the later execution. This seems more like Genndy’s gig
Oh man, these designs are amazing.
