Hello #PortfolioDay - the #comics interiors version.

I specialise in graphic shapes and limited colour (even when it appears to be full colour) and love me a little bit of fantasy history. I mostly work in the YA comics space.

A comparison of a similar shot between one panel of comic and illustration of my own work. Sometimes details are necessary, sometimes they are not.

I would also like to note doing ALL the Art on one whole page of comic every day is a punishing schedule and I should take longer! There’s a reason comics people take shortcuts to get the art done though!

Yesterday I finished my first Illustration, possibly all year! It took 4 days of fighting it. I’m used to comics at the moment and my internal Comic Fiona is scathing, “4 days for 1 image, cute.” she finishes 4 pages of many panels in 4 days. I need to make more illustrations and keep her in check.

I too was glad to see your news this morning. Politics is never black and white and sure there could be better results but its not the worst feared outcome. After our own election this week too. Hugs to you all over the Channel.

I try very hard on their behalf to remind myself of what a shithead I was on dA when I was younger - thankfully I wasn't off commenting on top artists work about stuff but I was defo doing stupid shit pretending I knew everything and was for justice for artists (when I had no idea what that was XD)

The biggest turning point in you life as an artist is when you shift gears from thinking “I can draw these things but not those things” to thinking “I can draw anything! Quality not guaranteed, but I can draw it”

Ladies of the Knight

#WebcomicDay

Serafina is the best knight in the league, almost, and she's doing just fine thanks, too bad others don't agree and saddle her with an enthusiastic, but wholey unsuited squire.

The whole team did fantastic <3

I'm offering up a book cover illustration commission for self-published (or small press) authors in this auction! I haven't had scheduling availability for self-pub lately, so this is a good opportunity if you are interested. There's lots of other amazing items as well, and for an important cause!

So at the end I have thousands of sketches but I got something from it. They have thousands of arts and didn’t find whatever fulfilment for an empty life they were searching for.

Yeah, I mostly joke because like I fill my sketchbooks with art either I drew for fun, or development for something, but the actual sketchbooks rarely see the light of day. Like… the picture isn’t the point, the making, what I learned or such is the point.

One of my favourite things about comics, is that I get to make fun cropped reaction shots like these, that don’t stand up on their own as illustrations, but make for some really fun panels.

I mean tbf to the ennui every time I ‘generate’ an image with my pencil I look at it like “welp what am I supposed to do with this now” too. On a more serious note, for a lot of the users, if they can’t find the meaning that they’re searching for in these apps they will move on. Sooner the better.

Okay so to be clear we are destroying power grids, the livelihoods of actual humans beings, and communication/research infrastructure for the sake of an algorithm that converts stolen data into unreliable stolen data and consistently loses millions of dollars. Just to be clear

KEEPING TIME has updated with *two* pages, bringing Chapter 1 to a close!! Now's the perfect time to come read this comic that I've always affectionately called an absolute bummer of a romance.

You don’t have to “be a writer” to write things. you don’t even have to be “good”. If you have an idea and want to tell it, you just have to sit down and do it, it won’t ever happen if you just think about it.
