Happy bug day to all who celebrate ❤️

My publisher sent me 8 advance reader copies of Lizard Boy 2 4 months AFTER the release (instead of before)! I'm giving them away! If you'd like to enter to win one, just leave a comment, repost this, & promise you'll leave a review. One winner will get a signed HC copy of the book! Please share!

Incredibly proud of our Moth Pokédex Zine, featuring photographs of needle felted figures of every moth Pokémon (and many of their larvae forms!), all with PNW-inspired descriptions. These will be available in our online store on Wednesday, August 20th! #needlefelting #zines #pdxartist #pokemon

This Sunday in Portland at Green Bean books!!!!

It's the 50th anniversary of the Fall of Saigon. I spent all of today digging through my office and the garage to find the DVD of this documentary my mom was in and then ripping it and compiling it to upload in its entirety. Please watch and share. youtu.be/d9rKhiEjLu0?...

I only really use Bluesky to Doom scroll, so I haven't been good about posting all my Lizard Boy 2 events. BUT... This Sunday at 2:00 I'll be at Green Bean books with @alliedrakeart.bsky.social ! We'll have a reading and talk about working together and then have a zine workshop! Free! All ages!

Two years back I wrote up a field guide to 3 different Farmer Fairies featuring figures I needle felted! Photography and design by @alliedrakeart.bsky.social with illustrative additions by @rowansugar.bsky.social. I have a few more similar guides in the works 👀

Hi! Drakes Den is run by two queer artists with 13+ years working in bookstores. Our objective is to open a brick-and-mortar gift/bookstore supporting our local community! Right now we function as an art market table selling used books, our own handmade art, and other curated art from folks we know!

A few of the pins/brooches that'll be available at St. John's Bizarre on may 10th! #embroidery #indieartist #pdxart #fiberarts @stjohnsbizarre.bsky.social

Opening night was such a treat! Thank you to everyone who came out!! You can now buy the originals as well as stickers and prints in store and online here! ✨ sonnyshouse.com/collections/...

As of today I can officially say I’m a published colorist!!!!! Lizard Boy 2 is out, it’s amazing, and I’m so proud of the work I did on it 💚

My book comes out next Tuesday! As a fun project to expand the world outside of the book, and as a way to say thank you for coming out, I'm making unique 'Case Files of Eagle Valley Paranormal' zines for each event in Portland! This one is for the release event at @literaryarts.bsky.social !

Third issue is up! (With a change in setting and cast!!!) Writing by @mkreed.bsky.social , art & design by me, beautiful colors by @alliedrakeart.bsky.social !

As someone who mostly draws books, this whole serialized monthly thing is very new to me. Having something come out every month is rad! The downside is I'm scrambling to try to finish everything on time for future issues, I don't feel like I'm talking about it as much. Anyhow, new BC next week!

Budding Crisis #2 exclusive preview. The Cygnan Illuminati celebrate the fruition of their well-crafted plans, and plot their next moves as they contend with the end of their reign #comics #comicbooks @mkreed.bsky.social @oneofthejohns.bsky.social @comixology.bsky.social

Fanbase Press' @barbrajdillon.bsky.social Interviews @mkreed.bsky.social and @oneofthejohns.bsky.social on the Launch of the Horticultural Fantasy Series, ‘Budding Crisis,’ with @comixology.bsky.social Originals

Hey this came out yesterday! Perhaps you need a distraction from real life! www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

If you want to see some of the best artwork that @oneofthejohns.bsky.social has ever done, it's in here. And that bar is really freakin high. Love to see @alliedrakeart.bsky.social absolutely nailing those old school adventure comic vibes too. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

In an *exclusive* essay for Comicon, 'Budding Crisis' artist @oneofthejohns.bsky.social discusses his part in developing the @comixology.bsky.social original's visual look: comicon.com?p=562666

Books are wild because they can really only be bound on one edge. Imagine a book that’s bound on two edges. An absolute mess

My next project, a reunion with one of my best buds @mkreed.bsky.social comes out on Tuesday. It's completely different from what I normally do and I'm really, really proud of it and the collaboration with MK and our colorist @alliedrakeart.bsky.social has been so much fun.

My first graphic novel, Avery and the Fairy Circle, comes out April 1st this year!! Published by @flyingeyebooks.bsky.social. If you haven’t preordered it yet then now is a great time to set yourself up for a pleasant springtime surprise :) #art #kidlit www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/763998...

I can’t wait for people to meet Jonas, human muppet and the best boy of all time

Really proud of the palette/visual style we developed for this series and I’m so proud of the coloring work I’ve done on it! Can’t wait for folks to be able to read it next week 🩷

Our colorist @alliedrakeart.bsky.social gave it a really classic color style that pulls from adventure comics like Tin Tin and Prince Valiant. Seeing the finished pages come in the past few months, I'm so proud of this project & all our work on it. It's something very different.

This was my pandemic project, a fantasy about the end of an era of magic in a utopian society. I spent the latter half of last year bringing it to life with one of my oldest comics friends & collaborators, @oneofthejohns.bsky.social. It's coming out next week. www.comicsbeat.com/preview-budd...

One of my favorite writing tropes borne of obvious disinterest is when the POV character gets knocked out at the start of a big battle and wakes up right after

“Haha can you believe McDonalds is doing a Squid Game promo” easily yes because capital subsumes all critiques of itself and no popular TV show or piece of art will ever threaten or unsettle it

miquella wip I’ll never finish

Thinking again about how incredible this article is

Broke out my poscas for halloween and made this little triptych 💜🧡💚

Been thinking about this character lately

It’s been a minute since I’ve done a self-portrait so I knocked one out 🩷

Back cover art from @oneofthejohns.bsky.social, that I forgot about until looking stuff up just a minute ago. In case you need some badass pastel vibes rn.

It looks like it's up on websites now, so I guess it's safe for me to share. Lizard Boy 2: The Most Perfect Summer Ever is coming out next Spring on April 8th! Colors by the amazing @alliedrakeart.bsky.social who managed to capture the essence of summer in her work!

A portrait I painted of my wife’s D&D character, an aspiring lich named Synemon!

Art I made of an NPC in a D&D campaign I was running—a skeleton fashion model!

A painting of an old OC of mine from a post-apocalyptic setting filled with aggressive plant life!

A spaceship design inspired by the myth of Daedalus and Icarus as well as ancient Greek pottery, set in a sci-fi labyrinth planet!

Poster I painted for a visual novel game I’ve been working on—Hopefully I can finish it someday!
