Behind the Scenes

Chapter:

So drawing this comic/diary takes 20ish hours a week. That’s on top of my regular job, and random freelance work. Now, in trying to improve and diversify my skills more for the current awful job market situation, I need to also squeeze in even more projects into what little time I have left in the day. Honestly, the only way for this to happen is if the personal projects override comic nights. So for few days a week I’ll work on other artwork and provide updates here. First up is a street art style piece for Dr. Richard Pickles Esq. the secondteenth.

Father’s Day

Chapter:

I’m posting early for a fathers night off. Dilly and I are playing Cars 3 Driven to win. It i better than it has any right to be.

Dilly drew today’s strip. When she was done I asked her what she had made. When she said “The Robot, The Cheese, and the other Robot” I laughed, and yet the more I looked at it the more weirded out I got. The vague shapes and strangely declarative names combine into a vaguely nightmarish triptych.

Adirondack grill

Chapter:

We can’t have a grill at our apartment so we have to use the built in ones. They haven’t been maintained well. The only way to keep the food flat is to offset the grate. It will do for now.

 

I did not realize everything points left in the composition, it feels like I drew a mid stumble perspective.

Art Practice

Chapter:

I need to be a better painter and illustrator, which means I need to learn from people better than me. This is based on a photo by Eduard Tucaković (Atlas). It took a while to find the artist, I had the image saved in the wrong folder. Actually it should have been in the do not draw folder but it’s too late now.
