Video game corner update: little shelf and framed vintage game flyers! Made/fitted the frames myself 👍 the big one I’ve been dreaming of framing for years. Very cozy corner to be lazy in.

I am so pleased how it came out! A new inking method and it printed beautifully. Hardcover, spot laminate, illustrated end papers, I got spoiled :)

Getting back to my roots and making frames. Only downside is it’s reminding me of my old job 🙃

Took time to build this little shelf for the video game corner of my studio. It’s a companion piece to the larger one I built last year, made from its scraps. Not perfect but came out good. 👍

Introducing my next comic, My Journey to Japan Escape to Yokai Mountain. A story about two siblings first trip to Japan and how meeting a magic monster is the best way to be a tourist. Split between a fun adventure and cool Japan facts, this kids comic was a dream to make.

Had a good art and friendship recharge yesterday going into the City for the first time in a year for NYCC related fun. Got some book treasures from Kino’s and this is a signed book of Cassandra Calin, who was super nice (been a longtime fan). Feeling good about our little comics community today :)

It’s been a little over a year since we bought our house but I’ve finally renovated the living room. I completely tore out the built in shelves and re did them with oak, painted, added better fitting furniture and was even able to put up some framed art. More to do but I’m pretty happy with it all.

Update on the woodworking and eventual frame shop. Got some shiny orange stools and built a scrap wood station. Up next will be a router table. #woodworking #workshop

Finally have some time to work on my home woodworking/frame shop and I made these two dudes. A basic work bench and a matching (sort of) miter saw station. Been fun planning, then making stuff.
