The fourth episode of our occasional web-series “The Draughtsman – Tales From The Drawing Board” takes us along as I create a one-page comic for a local magazine. You will see the full process from pencils, inks, colors, and printed feature.

The Baron of Solitude.

I’ve been asked for prints of this drawing many times and am happy to finally be able to offer “The Baron of Solitude” in an adequate form. The original artwork has been given a careful workover — it’s been looked over thoroughly, cleaned up and little imperfections were corrected. The white on black lettering has been reworked meticulously and now fits the rest of the piece much better. As all of my fine art prints it is printed with Lucia pigment inks andRead more

Mom’s Typewriter on Conan

20 years ago when I was a naive teenager with big dreams of becoming the next David Carson I created a series of fonts.

The Earth Is All That Lasts.

Today, Willem Maker is releasing the somber counterpart to AGAPAO entitled The Earth Is All That Lasts. Once again I had the honorRead more

Zine Machine Festival Appearance!

I am extremely pleased to announce that I will attend this year’s Zine Machine Printed Matter Festival in Durham, North Carolina on February 20th. The festival is flying me in from Germany to join my fellow Mineshaft regulars Aaron Lange and Pat Moriarity. On top of that I will finally get a chance to meet the wonderful people behind Mineshaft Magazine –– namely Everett Rand and Gioia Palmieri –– who have been generously publishing my work since 2008. But that’s not all! My friend Zebulon Whatley of SonsRead more

loBURN Magazine Feature

My work can be seen in the current issue of loBURN magazine. It’s a special edition entirely dedicated to R. Crumb and its main feature is a lengthy 30 question interview with the master himself. The interview was conducted by artist Lana Gentry (who by the way may be one of the most painted and drawn women alive) especially for this issue. If you’d ask me, Crumb is one of the greatest artists we currently have the pleasure to shareRead more
