Yessir-ee, I will be at Fresh Meat, the TOTALLY FREE, OPEN TO ALL student comic convention at the School of Visual Arts! Come to 215 E 23rd street, between 2nd and 3rd avenues, from 6pm and 9pm, and buy some comics! I’ll be there! Selling 2 (or maybe all three!) chapters of Blisterfish, plus THESE AWESOME POSTERS! I’ll also be at the Cartoon Allies table at MoccaFest, so come by and say hi!
Are you sad? Of course you are sad. Life is a sad thing. Full of sadness. And sad.
But fear not, Sad Person! For here is solution to all of your sad things.
This is the European Badger! Unlike the nasty Honey Badger, the European Badger does give a shit. He cares about you. He wants to fix your sadness.
Let him. Embrace the Badger.
So, sophomore year is going slowly. And I am stressed because I have 9 pages 100% inked, 2 pages 90% inked, one page 20% inked, 11 pages penciled, and the coverpage with only some of the letters inked.
And in an attempt to keep the fully inked pages safely out of my way, I taped them to the wall above my window and bed.
I’ve gone back to life drawing! Look at the pretty pictures.

Sorry I haven’t been updating here a whole lot. I’ve been focusing on Blisterfish.org, my regular webcomic that I’ve been working on! Go over there and check it out! In the meantime, I’m gonna start posting here again. Little tidbits etc.
A few summers ago, my parents and I took a week-long vacation to California. We flew out and rented a car, spent two nights in San Fransisco, two in Big Sur, and the rest of the week in LA before flying back to Virginia. While in Big Sur, we were driving through the mountains and came to a very posh restaurant along the side of the road with a big terrance and an amazing view of the mountains and sunset. On the terrace, at a little table, was a young boy—couldn’t have been older than 9 or 10. He was leaning back, arms up, jamming a hand-held gaming device in his own face, obscuring his own view of the breathtaking landscape.
For Storytelling homework this week, we had to draw a one-panel gag comic. So I did this.
The site was pretty badly hacked for a while, but my dad fixed it and now I’m back!
So, an update:
I’m working on Blisterfish chapters 1 and 2. I’ve been procrastinating on finishing chapter 1, but chapter 2 is almost done. I’ll get those up soon. When I do, it’ll be regular updates from now on. Probably Fridays until I get used to it, then it’ll be Mondays and Fridays.
I currently have a lot of work to do, but prepare yourselves for a Mass Upload soon!
Finally finished watching every single Dr Who episode Netflix has to offer. Little obsessed. What do you think of this as a shirt design? Words on the front, Tardis on the back.
Yeah I haven’t updated in like forever. But y’know what? My sophomore year at SVA is about to start! And you know what else? I’ve been working on a little project called Blisterfish and the Trailside Adventure, which I will start posting hopefully about 2 weeks from now. Check back soon!
