Hey everybody! I'm starting some special commissions as a way to raise funds for printing my next comic, "Tales from Aeaea #2"!
If you love cooking and maybe also have an appreciation for the strange or fantastic, I'll create a full-body portrait of you in the style of my "Cauldrons & Casseroles" zine. You could become a witch crafting cupcakes, a goblin making goulash, or a necromancer raising the bread! (I'm so sorry...wait–no wait, don't go!)
Here are the details:
For $75, you'll get an original ink drawing of yourself transformed into a fantastic character making your favorite dish, with a full background at 8.5" X 11" on archival bristol paper shipped to your door.
For an extra $25, I'll color your ink drawing like the examples above and mail you a print on high-quality 8.5" X 11" matte paper along with your original ink drawing.
Curious about what your portrait might look like? Take a look at these images from my "Cauldrons" zine!
If you'd like an original piece by me, personalized and completely unique, send me an email! I'll need a photo of you, your dish of choice, and any other preferences you might have. Payment required upfront. Domestic US shipping costs are included. I’ll provide a quote for international shipping. Pieces will be produced and mailed in order of requests made.
You can also visit my store here to pick up a copy of “Cauldrons & Casseroles” and the first “Tales from Aeaea.”
Thanks so much for taking a look and please share!

Halloween Punx!
Really excited to share the final product with everyone with weekend #spx2015 #cauldronsandcasseroles
The flower-child witch and her bob-tailed familiar.
This is among a set of four prints, pages taken from my new zine “Cauldrons & Casseroles”, that will be available for purchase at SPX this weekend. You can find me at tables F6-7 with Jimmy Giegerich, Kali Ciesemier, and Sam Bosma. Come visit us!
This is a repeat post from my other blog, but I thought this little guy could show off over here! I think this may be my favorite thing I've ever drawn, ever. Sometimes the simplest things just sing to me. I made it into a pattern and am picturing a community of fox burrows under the snow. That's a little too sweet, kinda sugary...but maybe that's appropriate? I would love to print this on fabric! Wouldn't it look great on a set of kids' sheets or a kids' throw blanket? Now who wants to sponsor that project...
I painted a couple of rebels for gouache demos in Alex Fine and Greg Houston's illustration classes. These guys are kind of evil...kinda got a devilish lean to em...the rebels too! (badum chh) (sorry)
I'm always amazed that anything I have to share in demos with classes are things students will appreciate and be able to use, but it's always great. So long as I'm not going off on too many random rants about dumb things then I just hope I'm imparting some tips, and it's a pretty good time.

A 2012 year-end review! Here are some of my favorite pieces I created in 2012. All of these were either tons of fun to make, helped me grow in some way, or gave me a chance to play with something new. Looking back, I think what I've learned from this past year, and what I need to do better this new year is simple: Make more. More more more. More.
2013! Gonna make so much more!!
I liked that NYT illustration so much when I first saw it earlier this week; I'm glad it showed up again in my Tumblr feed. Your art is really fantastic, and it encourages me to keep drawing! Best, Sam
Thank you so much!! Your kind words will encourage me to keep drawing too! (Let's all keep drawing!)
I love your artwork so, so much. It's so beautiful and you're so talented!! When I am financed I will got to your store and buy everything. EVERYTHING. :) <3 <3 :D
Thank you so, so much! That's really lovely to hear :) And I haven't updated my Society 6 store in a little while, so if there's something not for sale on there that you want to be on sale, please let me know! I'm just here to oblige...
