Fannie @ SCF!

Cover design for Fannie Firecracker, 2009, ink with digital color.

Oh, my! Here's a taste of the something I'll be serving at Stumptown Comics Fest 2009! Visit Table 2, where I'll be stationed (at least half the time) with my Intense comrades.

Also, our original work from the Intense collection continues to hang through the month of April at Backspace in Northwest Portland. Stop by said nook and have a look!

Excerpt from For the Love of Mice, 2008, ink.

Thanks to all the friendly folks who visited Bridge City Comics last Wednesday to help us celebrate the release of Intense! Thanks also to Mike and the Bridge City staff who allowed us to occupy their fine establishment for a couple of evening hours.

During the month of March, original work from the Intense collection (including the page to which the silly panel above belongs) will be displayed at Backspace in Northwest Portland.

Come by the evening of Thursday, March 5, when several of us will be present for First Thursday opening of our show. I do believe our work will be hanging in the rear gallery. See you there!

My Drawing Space, 2009, digital photographs.

Here's a peek at the li'l corner where I draw. I hoped some of the panel content would be visible in the right-hand photo but I can only see the vaguest hints of pencil drawings.

Event notice! For those of you in the Portland area, I invite you to drop by Bridge City Comics on the evening of Wednesday, February 25. My fellow Intense collection contributors and I are holding a small release party for the book. Maybe I'll see you there?

Lady Uliya title card, 2009, ink with digital color.

Who can forget watching this on Saturday mornings, huh? Pajamas and bowl of Cheerios recommended for optimum viewing.
