Chillin at table 26 at Cartoon Crossroads Columbus this weekend ✨

Friends, I am as excited as heck to tell y'all about the NEWBERRY MEDIEVAL MINICOMIC PRIZE! It's for emerging cartoonists (i.e. no major publisher work, excepting anthologies) considering making a short work that engages with a medieval subject (fic or nonfic). 1/ www.newberry.org/calendar/new...

SPX TIME! Find me at table B9~

Emerging from my cave to present the cover of the new comic. 28 pages of medieval drama are coming hot off the risograph to debut at @smallpressexpo.bsky.social

September comic event whirlwind is imminent, see you nerds in Bethesda and Columbus

binding books by hand takes forever but is meditative in a way

Last day 👀

when you [spoiler redacted] and she gives you this look, wyd?

drafting pages out of order because I wanted to avoid the big stupid battle scene on the first spread until I got my feet under me stylistically

hurtling my way through the actual comic pages now, but here are a few more sketches to finalize character designs

Thank you so much for your orders, by the way. I've been out of the merch game for a while and with recent + upcoming changes to global shipping regulations, doing another run of this collection felt like a bit of a gamble. So I really appreciate your continued interest in my lil objects.

Preorders for a final run of these pins are open through the end of August! I made a small update to the design of the bow. I have a hard time picking a favorite, but it's probably the flail. emilycheeseman.myshopify.com

postcard club mail is on its way this week 💌

speaking of thumbnails, here is what Dream in Red looked like at first. total madness. I wrote and drew it simultaneously, working digitally until I hit a wall, then I printed out a draft because editing on paper hits different somehow.

I drew all the spreads for Dream in Red on a single gigantic canvas, which was insane in terms of layer management but nice for overall composition. In the crunch to finish the project I wanted to see where I was at in the process at all times.

life's too short to not be cringe about an elf OC on any given day

performing emergency risograph surgery today 😬

making different shades of red cardstock battle to the death, the winner gets to be the cover of a mini comic about The Dark Urge

reaching the stage of a new project where I'm questioning everything like "is this stupid" but it's better to make something stupid than to not make it at all
