Out today! uk.bookshop.org/p/books/pets...

I just posted a new Podcast episode, which has a fully produced audio book style story segment. It was made by my friend Mike, so it sounds wonderful. I’ve been wanting to share this for a while. I’d love to know what you think! open.substack.com/pub/jlatham/...

Oh man, this weather, this news, it's just too much.

Just throwing this out there that most of these are available as digital #coloringpages in my shop: www.jschiek.com/swag/ #art #comics #illustration #samurai #yokai #color

Ahhh thank you so much!!! So glad you liked it!!!

That’s enough internet for the day. Oof. Brain is not built for this.

Thank you so much for the kind words about this piece!!! 💚 I’ve made it into a print - on my E*sy, but I’ll also run a little giveaway for the test prints

Painting is healing. Death is all around us, all the time. We continue, we’re like the moss. I love you, friends. Thank you for being here. Painted with acrylic ink on watercolour paper. Trying to prep a high quality print for Etsy at the moment, if anyone is interested.

Painting is healing.

The news, images and videos from the weekend are breaking me. I'm sure I'm not alone.

Feeling a bit teary weighing how awful things are, but simultaneously how good to each other we can be. Sending love to Minneapolis and its wonderful people.

I managed to miss most of the news from the weekend. This makes Monday SO much more painful.

Hey, I feel like crud, sad. I got the sads. I can't concentrate. I might do a painting later just for the sake of doing a painting. I might stream it on IG maybe. I don't know. Maybe not. Ugh.

Pop ups and cookie consent forms are the best. The internet is great these days

Wahey! new scanner / printer has arrived, and I've just finished setting it up and testing it, and can confirm it is a lot better than my previous trusty steed. It actually seems to scan my watercolours well, which could be very helpful for the future

🎉💚 Thank you so much!!!! 💚🎉

Congratulations to Joe Latham @lookhappy.bsky.social winner of the Best Colorist category in the 2025 Broken Frontier Awards! www.brokenfrontier.com/broken-front...

Our OGN "Tunis to Sydney" follows a Tunisian-Australian couple & explores the immigrant experience & the concept of 'home'. Hopefully our book can open up people's minds and hearts to cultures other than their own. You can order it online or from your local book retailer.

Best Kids Comics of 2025 www.comicsbeat.com/best-kids-co... @trungles.com @goraina.bsky.social @ianflynnbkc.bsky.social @bgonsar.bsky.social @hamishsteele.bsky.social @lookhappy.bsky.social @apamaate.bsky.social @brianmbendis.bsky.social @spiritsonic.bsky.social @definitelyvita.bsky.social

Why are so many Punk singers very much not punk? So many abusers out there, when the ethics of punk are supposed to be righteous. Fame corrupts so many people.

Here's the thing about social media, it can feel like we put our heart & soul into something, but if we share it at the wrong time, or not enough people 'like' it, it can be disheartening. The problem IS social media, not the thing we put our soul into. Believe in the process, lean in to your heart.

Oh gosh I can feel the crash is coming. How to cope… how to cope… can’t remember what I normally do… think it’s tea and snacks

Here are all 20 painted sketch cards I’ve done for @goshcomics.bsky.social for the release of HARU Book 3! (More to follow)…
