My incredibly awesome haul from CAKE!
I met so many amazing people and saw a bunch of fantastic comics! I even got Chris Ware to sign my copy of Jimmy Corrigan and Lint! 
All in all an awesome way to end my time in Chicago!

My incredibly awesome haul from CAKE!

I met so many amazing people and saw a bunch of fantastic comics! I even got Chris Ware to sign my copy of Jimmy Corrigan and Lint! 

All in all an awesome way to end my time in Chicago!

things outside my apartment:

A motorbike

a tiny garden on a table

Graph paper sketchbook drawings!

Figure Drawings! In INK!

Are you going to be at CAKE!?!?! 

Yes? then you might see me there, walking around the floor, with a stack of these, my new-ish minicomic, Radiator. A 16 page full-color comic about the struggles of living with an obnoxiously loud radiator. The cover and endpapers are screen printed and there are only 50 copies. Also, the cover is glow-in-the-dark! If i still have some left after the con, i’ll be putting some up for sale somewhere i still have to figure out. And if you didn’t get a chance to pick up my minicomic How I Get By or my zine Loop Detail at Zinefest a few months ago, i’ll have some copies of those with me as well. 

If you’re going to Cake and want to get in touch, send me an ask, i’d love to meet you!

Some figure drawings, i think i’m beginning to get a feel for things again, maybe, i don’t know there’s always room to improve
