1. Comic: The Obsessed Writer

I'm posting some of my older comics here as I catalog and tag them in prep for a print book compilation. You can find my comics for writers on Inkygirl (http://inkygirl.com), Tumblr (http://inkygirl.tumblr.com) and Pinterest (http://pinterest.com/inkyelbows/comics-for-writers-inkygirl-com)

2. Boring

I have nothing to blog about, but figured I'd better at least check in.


Wendell's feet
(I love kitty feet, what can I say?)

Wendell's doing a lot better, thanks to a twice daily dose of this stuff:


Giving a cat meds in an eye dropper is actually pretty easy; way easier than trying to get them to swallow a pill! (If you've ever done this you know what I mean).


Working on some kid art for a commission of sorts, and its very very very different than what I usually do. I'm making big shapey pictures with acrylics on canvas. I feel very Matisse or someone, although nowhere in that league, of course.

A new architectural rendering job just came in, and its a lot of bricks. A LOT. Like, a couple of big brick walls and a sign. But I like bricks, bring it on!

I made a trip to the art store and bought some Stonehenge paper and some Sabertooth sanded pastel paper. I haven't used Stonehenge, ever (and I call myself a colored pencil artist!), and only used the sanded stuff for pastels. After that stint with the mylar, I was really craving some serious TOOTH. I'll post whatever I do with it. I'm thinking chocolates, since I have a lot of brown pencils and I know the sanded paper will really eat them up. Not sure what I'll do with the Stonehenge.


I'm also trying to fight off some kind of cold or malaise, you know the kind. So I'm kinda slow.

I'll try to have something more interesting to talk about or show next time, promise!
For now, its off to paint a doggie juggling milk bones...

3. Grumpy's Logo



Just recently finished up this logo for a company. Overall, I think it came out looking pretty good, and I thought I'd share.

No real news to report beyond that. A lot of the same really.

Work, sleep, wife, work, sleep, wife, work, sleep, wife, etc.

It's painfully boring being me.

Why Andrew Sullivan blogs.

Are the debates boring or is Facebook just irresistible?

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s love letters head to court.

In transgender transitions how young is too young?

5. Work Finished - Monster Train






I was finally able to finish this one up last week. Overall, I don't hate it. Is it the best in the series? Naw. Is it the worst, Naw. It's decent, and decent is good enough for me at the moment.

It was sort of an uneventful weekend for me. The wife and I didn't really do much. I've had to take a bit of a break from writing the book in order to get some other stuff done, but hopefully I'll be able to get back to it sometime this week. I'm at a point (somewhere in the middle of the story) that has me a bit stumped. I know how the story is going to end, but I've written myself into a bit of a corner and I'm having trouble getting over a hump. I had hoped that taking some time away from it would help me sort things out in my head, but it really hasn't worked.

Not exactly the most well thought out plan, I know.

I saw a really good movie called "Son of Rambow" over the weekend. A really sweet little story, well directed, funny, had everything really. It didn't change my life or anything, but without a doubt it was a good flick.
