ahh thank you 🥹 i wonder if it’s like— main characters and love interests, we want the readers to love them as much as we do so there’s pressure to draw them just right every time. always end up reminding myself each panel doesn’t need to be perfect!!

Two comic panels in graphite. Top panel, the cat doll points at the artist, shouting “You— large peasant! Fetch my clothing at once!” Second panel, the artist makes a disgruntled face, thinking “how rude! I mean, kinda accurate.. —still!”

Two comic panels in graphite. In the top panel, closeup of the person’s hands setting a pair of glass eyes into the cat doll face. Second panel, the person strings the body of the doll together. Text reads: when I’m working on my dolls, my mind goes to a peaceful place. a place where there’s no judgment or fear. just the work. One comic panel in graphite. Closeup of the person staring lovingly at the finished doll. Below, the cat doll stands alone on the page, all painted and strung and sparkling like new. Text reads: …Plus, they’re really, really cute. It’s hard to feel sad or lonely when you’re looking at them.

—enjoy this silly short comic I started last year and hope to continue working on soon…
Single comic panel in graphite. Closeup of a person’s face concentrating hard on painting a tiny cat doll face Text reads: I didn’t have a lot of friends as a kid. I always just wanted to be alone with my art. Two comic panels in graphite. In the top panel, the person is seen from behind sitting at a desk, cluttered with art supplies. In the second panel the cat doll face sits in the palm of the person‘s hand while they paint on dainty eyelashes. Text reads: it’s not that I don’t like people… I just happen to prefer the quiet dark of my studio. But I am hardly alone.

Abolish ICE. A little journal comic from South Minneapolis.

#iceoutmpls #iceoutcomics #iceoutofmpls
Just before Christmas, I got a puppy. Her name is Minerva, and we call her *Minnie. I'm still learning how to understand her. Me: Do you need to go outside? Do you need to go outside, little baby? Do you need to do a poo? Do you need to do a widdle piddle? Minnie: Arf! *I just call her "little baby" most of the time. I'm also realizing I can't turn off the baby talk now. Nobody tells you about that. I got so lucky with my first puppy. Her wonderful foster parents had her completely house-trained by the time we adopted her, so taking her outside for potty time has been pretty easy. I've got the puppy poopy routine pretty much down, now. Me, putting on my coat: Let's see... I got the little poopy bags, puppy treats for bribes, jacket, scarf, phone… I think that's everything… Oh yes! And my passport. I had been carrying around my passport for a while, but I knew it didn't matter. This is wrong. Nobody is required to carry around their papers. I became a US citizen when I was seven. Since I was born in a refugee camp, I was stateless. The US is the only nation where I've ever held citizenship. It's the only passport I've ever had, and it still felt important. Protective. I would hold it in my pocket like a talisman, like it might ward off ghosts or something. But I realized I was holding onto it basically out of superstition. ICE will pick up anybody. I know that. So I tucked my passport away. And I largely avoid leaving my house. I live a few blocks just South of George Floyd Square. I was in the neighborhood for that, too. And all the neighbors came together to protect each other. We're already organized. We'll do our best to get through this. Me, to my dog: I hope I can take you for a walk someday soon. Won't that be nice, little baby?
