I've been trying to put together an online portfolio of my pen and ink art.

Emo Whale is an older piece that I just colored last night. I definitely think my photoshopping skills need some major work though.



Last Thursday was a Cartoonist Conspiracy meeting here in the Bay... I wish I had pictures. We started a new book titled simply "Robots Versus Bunnies". We came up with a page by page plot breakdown, but each artist only creates a single panel per page.

I spent all night working on one large panel, the introduction of the pillaging robot on the utopian rabbit society. Man I wish I had a scan of it to show you guys. Hopefully, we'll finish the comic at our next meeting. Speaking of, our Cartoonist Conspiracy table has been approved for Maker Faire, but now I'm looking for volunteers to run it. Anybody interested in helping out, let me know.

Thanks.

I don't know who in our group was the first to start refering to birthdays as "Vagina Hat Anniversary Days", but I want to thank them. The term, which gives such an unshakable image, would be said something like "Just think, 30 years ago, you were wearing a vagina hat."

It seems only natural to bring the phrase to life by making an actual Vagina Hat Birthday Hat.

This is my mock up version of the Vagina Hat. I hope to have a IRL model in the fall.

Probably gonna have to use felt.

The biggest problem in making a Vagina Hat is that nothing I design, is going to be as haunting an image as someone may come up with in their own head when they hear the phrase.
