New bits for the Cookeville ART Prowl this weekend: my “Merry Mari Lwyd” illustration as a print or on cards as well as an L Frank Baum sticker sheet. I’ve also restocked my card/print designs from last year and my Edgar Allen Poe sticker sheets.

Drew up some Treat Bags for a few of my favorite tricksters.

Playing around with some texture brushes and decided to sketch my favorite Bug Boyz, Zuckuss and 4-LOM.

(No-one shake my head canon of them as grouchy gruff dad and exuberant wiseass son.)

I’m pretty excited for the #nashvillecomicartsfestival this weekend! I’m tabling with my buddy @cached.bsky.social and right next to @nekoemo.bsky.social in what I’m sure will be known as the “Little Cookeville” region of NCAF. Swing by to see us and check out all of the wonderful comics!

Had a blast with my new Dr Venture costume last night at Dragon Con. Speed suits are the fashion of the future, such freedom, such versatility! Way better for dancing, too.

Dragon Con time for the Jones Boys!Not looking forward to wearing a three piece wool suit in Atlanta heat, but I am stoked to see some cool costumes and share some comics and stickers.

Only got a few rooms into Leblaque’s Tomb before I had to get back to work, but things are looking good so far! 240 gp and a Golden Idol is almost enough to warrant turning around…

This is a touching tribute, btw, I can appreciate how many memories must be tucked and woven into this module.

I’ve got a new brick print! “LetGo” is a 6”x8” print with a limited run of just 25 copies, debuting this Friday at Art Round Tennessee’s First Friday at CPAC from 5-8 pm. Come by and say hi if you’re near Cookeville!

A creekside porch in the NC mountains is a pretty great place to read and sketch some Tolkien, if you happen to get the chance.

I’ve been building up my sketch cards for FCBD and found myself with a touch of Mutant Fever.

My first chunk of Hourly Comic Day drawings. It’s a good feeling to be caught up! I love seeing how folks all around the world have intersecting and diverging moments.

Tomorrow is Hourly Comic Day! Hands down, my favorite annual art challenge. Here are my pages from last year. I don’t know how many Feb. 1sts I’ve chronicled, but it’s well over a dozen, and these little books are some of my most treasured possessions.

I got some excellent quality sheets from Sticker Ninja, fast turn around, and they have a variety of sizes.

The best part of sending out mail is getting to doodle all over the envelopes.

I taped off some Bristol, drew things in with a sign pen and sharpie fineline, added color with a highlighter and some bargain alcohol markers, then blacked space in with a bigger Sharpie.

A lot of this was experimenting for me, for the most part pretty happy with it.

Sending some prints to a friend, they mentioned their kid is into wizards and glowing orbs, so I brought my best Van Art game for a bonus piece.

I’ve been playing a lot of Stone Shard lately and really needed to draw my knight errant, Arna der Vyrne.

She has seen…some stuff.

Maybe I’ve had a more picturesque drawing spot in the past, but I’ll be dammed if I can remember when. Kings Beach, you are a wonderful and gorgeous town, you’d better believe I’ll be back.
