It's #PortfolioDay ! I'm a cartoonist and illustrator, specializing in watercolor works of fantasy and folklore. Portfolio: https://t.co/4x71Xh2Hqo Short Comics: https://t.co/W4tGMVijKd Art Prints: https://t.co/c6MFAcL5HN Graphic novels: https://t.co/DevJvGz70R
In addition to my work with comics, I'm also always on the lookout for work illustrating prose novels! (pictured are illustrations for THE MAGNIFICENT MONSTERS OF CEDAR STREET by Lauren Oliver, and KATE CRACKERNUTS, an old english fairy tale). #portfolioday
Here is the preliminary and ink drawings! This painting is from a couple of years ago. I was looking through my files and I still really like it, and I don't know if I ever posted it here.
Several years ago, when things were bad as they are now, I made a comic about art and community in the face of hate. Today feels like a time to reshare. 1/5

The hills are calling to you.
An air of mystery.
