Halloween 2013


Yet another Halloween.  Don't know if I will ever get to updating this site except for Halloween posts.  Life keeps me pretty busy.  Oh, and did I mention I have become a face painter?  You can check out my work at https://www.facebook.com/illustrated.faces.  That is, if anyone still checks this blog, and if so, thank you :)

Halloween 2012

I can continue my yearly halloween post, though it's already December.  Growing families take up so much time I can barely get any sleep, but things are good here.  Maybe someday I'll return to the daily comic, I certainly have material to draw, just not enough time to do it.  Thanks to anyone who still follows the blog!

Halloween was a repeat of the past, but with two additions: Princess Peach and Toad ^_^

Halloween 2011


Wow, it's been nearly a year since I last posted and a lot has happened to account for the lack of attention.  First, we have a new addition to the family.  Naia, our second little girl was born in September.  We also had family unexpectedly live with us for three months while relocating to Austin.  So...life so fully consumed my every waking minute.  This halloween has been my first creative outlet in longer than I can remember.  Enjoy the costume photos, and hopefully I will be able to start drawing comics again (preschool does start soon).

Teefury ripoff




Teefury has a shirt up today that bears a remarkable resemblance to my Soylent Green shirt submission to Woot. Granted, I didn't read the instructions properly and therefore my submission was rejected. Plus, I doubt my version is the only one out there prior to today....but still, feels like teefury stole the idea. I actually think mine is slightly better because I used the packaging design from the movie, but clearly I don't know what sells. The first pic is mine, the second is the movie prop, and the third is teefury.

Again, sorry about the lack of posts. I do believe I will get comics up at some point in the future. I just don't know when.

Mushroom shirt


Still having a hard time regularly updating this blog, I'll try to get some new comics posted soon. But I've finally got another Woot Derby submission. I'm sure it won't win, but I had fun making it. I love shirts with food themes and I thought that edible mushrooms would play into the current theme of "Oddball." Death Cap mushrooms look just as delicious as a lot of other mushrooms, but it can kill you! If you'd like to see it printed, you could vote for it here.

Not enough sleep


Cecilia wakes up really early. I know most new parents complain that their kid wakes up at 6 or 7 am, and that is early for most new parents. But Cecilia wakes up at 4 or 4:30 am. Consistently. And she doesn't just fuss in her bed, she calls for me, and will then cry continually for an hour if I let her. For a brief amount of time, she woke up closer to 5 am (and I relished those days) but not anymore. And things are only worse when she has a cold. In an effort to try and convince her to sleep an extra 30 minutes or so, I'll take her into my bed to see if she might be lulled back to sleep. Sometimes it works, but it usually results in me not sleeping because she is very fidgety, and tends to enjoy sleeping on top of me in the most uncomfortable positions. The other morning, she fell asleep next to me, but as she has a cold (and a pacifier) she was quite noisy. And then, Seth was snoring right in my ear on the other side, and any movement risked Cecilia waking up earlier than normal. So, needless to say, I have spent many a day in dire need of a nap.

Derby


Submission for the theme "fire." Up for voting here. Had fun making a cute set of flames, poor blue flame.
