MICE was a lot of fun!

Thanks to everyone who came by the table! And thanks to the MICE organizers for doing such a wonderful job with everything. Bob Flynn and I drew up a storm, as seen below:

Ribbit!

My next watercolor class for adults starts next Thursday night in Arlington, Massachusetts.

Arlington Community Education

(I used some colored pencil to add white on this one. I'm not a purist!)

GULP! A Monster Comic Anthology for Kids

And here's a preview of the actual printed page!

Monsters in the House!

Along with Roho and Bob Flynn, I edited an anthology of monster comics for kids called "GULP!" The book will debut at MICE on September 28th. I also drew a comic for the book, and I'm excited to see how it comes out. It is being risograph-printed in blue and orange, so the actual results may be somewhat surprising! More details to come, but here's a preview:

Pretzel Snake

For all your snake pretzel needs

Pretzo!

Look for Pretzo! at the imaginary grocery store just past the end of the lane.

Space Chef, Sunny Side Up

Summer is rolling along . . .

Moynihan Architectural Consulting

Harvard recently built a new skate spot! Unintentionally, I'm assuming.

This is why major institutions should be hiring Moynihan Architectural Consulting!!!

Watercolor Lizards

Who wants to join my next watercolor class in Arlington?

MeCAF ReCAP 2013

MeCAF was a blast once again this year! I loved meeting everyone who came out to the show and drawing lots and lots of monsters!

A Boston monster for José-Luis Olivares

These nice people requested "a one-armed monster who is depressed, but with a glimmer of hope."
Who can't relate to that?

And I got a request for a half-Chewbacca, half-vampire:

I also got myself a new fake ID from an enterprising young man at the show. I haven't tested it out to see if it works in Massachusettes yet.

Moira Swiatkowski snapped a good shot of us. Bob looks alert and ready for action, but I look a little out of it. I think I am actually in the midst of imagining my next monster to draw as I uncap a marker!

Maine Comics Arts Festival

The Maine Comics Arts Festival is this Sunday in Portland, Maine. I will be there with Bob Flynn, doodling in copies of Heeby Jeeby Comix and drawing free monsters!

You should come! Just look at what happened last year!

Infinite Corpse

I recently had the pleasure of contributing to a huge, crazy, online collaborative comic called Infinite Corpse, and it went live today!

See if you can find my panels, and then add your own!

Let's Ride!

LEXICON 2013

I had a great time last week at the newest comic convention, LEXICON, at Lexington High School. Awesome art teacher and cartoonist Cara Bean invited a few local artists to come share our work with a cafeteria-full of high school artists. It was fun to meet the artists, see what they were making, and even do some art trades. One of the highlights was receiving this portrait of myself in exchange for a drawing of Tomb Raider (!):

See more on Cara Bean's teaching blog (where I stole this photo from).

Pizza for lunch?

Yay! Hot pizza comin' through.

How Drawing Should Feel

Not like this:

It's easy to forget.
