Comic progress, Tilda Swinton, liveblogging (oh...
Liz and I had two work days in a row this week, and we now have storyboards for five more pages of Foundling, which brings us to the end of chapter one! It was so nice to sit and work with her for a few hours and blast through those sketches.
Tonight I have set aside especially for watching Orlando and drawing Tilda Swinton at her gender-bending best (in that category, though, this David Bowie...

Blog #2
Friends and Tumblr followers! I have decided to create *drumroll* A SECOND TUMBLR.
I’ve been posting a lot of stuff that isn’t related to my art, or even art in general, and the number one goal of this blog was to put my art on the internet and get inspiration from other artists. I really want it to stay that way, so I’m making another one, which is where I will put all my...

I think the next step should be to actually have separate...

My computer is on the fritz, so posting is going to be sporadic at best for a little while. BUT, I’m also in Albuquerque with my parents and hoping to get lots of sketches of plants and things, so maybe I’ll be able to post some using my phone! Stay tuned for more adventures.

Kali Ciesemier: TAXES FOR FREELANCERS, 101 →
I’ve been trying to cut down on reblogging but I just can’t pass this up. Kali Ciesemier lays out the tax situation for freelancers, punctuated with adorable, effortless spot illustrations. Obvy.

In the past, I’ve gotten some questions about the business of illustration & about how taxes work. Filing taxes is a bummer, but it sucks even more when you have no...

today swedish news literally announced that “spring is cancelled”
we can all go back into hibernation
I’m pretty sure that’s not right. According to my Swedish-English dictionary, inställd is an adjective meaning to be prepared or set. “Våren är inställd: den kalla luften ligger kvar” translates roughly as “spring is ready: (but) the cold air...
