I've been away for a bit, but now I'm back!!

Later today I will be posting a few more times (or maybe once more) to bring the viewing public up to speed.

Guerilla-Mainstream-Conceptual-Killing- Spree!!

Has anyone seen these around town? I found them over by the Hungry World on E. Broad and Gwinnett.

Well...damn..."behind" isn't the word anymore...

It would seem I've been putting off updates despite the progress I've been making in terms of projects. Although, that's not an excuse. Laziness is just what it means. Laziness and Sloth. To do nothing is a Sin to the Church, and if my art doesn't condemn me first, surely my lack of diligence will be the cause.

But, I haven't disappeared for nothing. Over my blogging hiatus I've written a story of trauma and truth that is surely going to mean something to someone, and that is in pre-production this very second, but will be started on the main pencils by next week at the latest.

Next post will have another 3 page story added to my portfolio on this page. Stay frosty, viewers.
I'll be back soon.

Updates and such...(I'm behind)

The Zinefair saw a fairly successful selling of my first (self-motivated) mini-comic product, "Bottom of the Stairs". One friend bought it because he was under the impression that it was a pornography. Despite the fact it wasn't, he was still very pleased with the story. Not sure how my direct family will take the book...more specifically my older brother, but it's already out there. It's gonna suck when he sees it.

On a lighter note, I've submitted a two-page story to my school's sampler/ anthology of graphic fiction. A brief tale of debt, desperation, and the all-American classic...arson. It's entitled "Moving Day".

BOTTOM OF THE STAIRS IS IN ITS FINAL STAGES!!!

I am currently pushing myself to make sure "Bottom of the Stairs" comes out on time for the SCAD Zinefair this weekend!! Time is tight, but things are looking up. And then down... and then steadily rising... AND THEN UP!!! This is besides the point though. "Bottom of the Stairs" is almost ready for printing, and when it is, copies will be sold at the ZINEFAIR. Hopefully, I'll be accepting orders if people really want them and I have any left over next week.

Sorry about the wicked long break in posting.

Finals in one of my drawing classes consumed a good deal of time, I'll be posting the last pages from that class as well as the few sketchbook comics I have from my week in North Carolina. To satisfy and salvage whatever I have left in terms of readers and followers, here are some sketches I did in my classes this last week... Philosophy has proven to be a most productive class in terms of art ironically enough.

This first, if I uploaded it properly, is of one of my best friends fighting a caterpillar, or just before that rather.

The second, should be a doodle of my girlfriend, that I did when I didn't have enough time to stop for lunch with her because of class. I drew it in class.

I'll find the pages from my final and HOPEFULLY my vacation comics and post them after I move to my new place this weekend.

Rollin' 20s pencils

I have been recently developing an idea with my good writer friend Will Getchell.  So far the concept has developed into 3...no, almost 4 scripts of what could be ultimately a 10 issue mini-comic epic.  Not much can be said of it right now because of the early stages of the project, but it's definitely going somewhere.  Sorry about the secrecy in terms of the story, and to show I am truly sorry, here are two pages of the first issue in the finished pencil stage.
