Two pieces I did for TOUGH LOVE, a show opening at Double Punch tomorrow in San Francisco! Curated by the extremely wonderful Alison Dubois!
Unfortunately I can’t attend because I will be in Toronto for TCAF, but you should go if you can β lots of lovely work by folks like Zejian Shen, Lisa Hanawalt, JooHee Yoon, Hannah K. Lee, and so many more!

An illustration of Isaiah 6 for the Old and New Project, a biblical illustration initiative by Jim LePage and Troy Deshano.
I’ve been an atheist since childhood, so I was at first bewildered when they asked me to participate β but in exploring their site, I learned that the project welcomes and in fact encourages artists from all spiritual perspectives, including people like me who are are about as spiritual as a bag of hammers.
I’ve been perennially fascinated by the products of Christianity β the crazy saints, the obsessive work of Hieronymous Bosch, Bernini’s St. Teresa, Dante’s Divine Comedy, William Blake’s illustrations of Dante’s Divine Comedy, weird icons, everything discussed in The Name of the Rose, odd relics, strange rituals, the cathedrals… etc.
This particular moment from Isaiah has been illustrated by tons of people, but I was really smitten with this amazing naive drawing by Benjamin Roden, who founded the Branch Davidian Seventh-day Adventist Association (?). I learned a lot researching this project, and if you like the piece you can buy a print β proceeds go to charity.
Thanks to Jim and Troy!

The Wicker Man for the Silver Screen Society. This is a movie where Nicolas Cage runs around, hits women, gets covered in bees, and eventually burns to death (spoilers).
Thanks again toΒ Trevor Basset and Brandon Schaefer!
I participated in Hourly Comic Day on February 1st, and inexplicably I have only just now finished my comics. I seem to be having tremendous difficulty with my lifestyle
Many other folks did a much better job with theirs, viz: Eleanor Davis, Vera Brosgol, Emily Partridge, Jen Wang,Β Chuck Groenink, Brandon B, Angie Wang,Β John Martz, Kat Verhoeven, Emily Carroll, Rebecca Tobin, and (the winner) Kris Mukai.
If you want to see the same day told from the perspective of some of the people in this comic, see the hourlies of Roman Muradov, Jennifer Hom, Betsy Bauer, and Mark Ivey.
Next year I’m just going to lie in a dark room and draw black squares all day.

Hello! This fall, Retrofit will be publishing a comic by me! I can’t say much about it yet, but I’ve scripted it out and am elbow-deep in thumbnails at the moment.
The rest of their lineup this year is (as you can see) fantastic, so please do consider a subscription. I’m extra happy to share a season with two of my favorite people in the world.
Comics!!
