2019! ๐
Hello Dear PATRONS! I hope 2019 has been treating you well. Iโm excited for another year of comic making, live-streaming, traveling to conventions and bookstores, and drawing these very special hockey people.Uh, so Check Please ends this year? Yes. ๐ฉ But Iโm going to be working on the comic well into the summer to get it ready for print. The comic might even keep updating into 2020??? Iโm not sure yet. (Madisonis a thing, but Iโm not currently sure where it would fit in with my schedu...

Livestream & Progress
Livestreams!Hey folks, I'm streaming right now over on Picarto!I should be able to stream tomorrow and one last additional time before the end of the year.

Comic 4.9 - "Whiskey" Preview
Next comic: 4.10 - Coach
Sticks & Scones & Scripts & Scenes
Good news and Meh News. Deja vu?? The Good News is that I've finished the cover of Check, Please!: Sticks & Scones. This time around, you'd think it'd be easy to draw Bitty beckoning a reader into an exciting pie-filled adventure and to fill a cover with interesting story cues and narrative hints. You would think that! But this time around, it was so much harder. I dunno, I felt the pressure....I got in my head...I kept imagining the book in stores...the worst case scenarios! What if...
Livestreams!

Christmas in Madison :-)
Progress ๐๏ธHowdy! In the most recent newsletter, I outlined how I'm only focusing on thumbnailing, penciling, and inking comic pages for Year Four at the moment. This means I'm in a week-to-week cycle of grabbing a new episode from the Year Four master script -> thumbnailing as many as I can in a cafe -> plowing through pencils -> and inking.Comics 4.11, 4.12, and 4.13 are all...inked and ready for flatting. I have drawn SO many instances of Coach. And despite the conflict he introd...
Drawing Various Bittles
ProgressHello!! Welcome to the progress report. As I explained in the most recent newsletter, Iโm focusing on inking as many pages as I can before coloring and lettering (and posting) the comic. EXTREME SPOILERS. Comic 4.8 catches us up on Dex, Nursey, Ransom, Shitty, Holster, and Lardo. Comic 4.9 introduces a new thread of drama as Bitty attends a non-Haus party. Comic 4.10 is the aftermath of 4.9, with some input from Jack--and it ends with a surprise visit. And comics 4.11 and 4.12 (and 4.1...

Progress Report - Lots of #Drawing
This Week!One Of The Greatest Feelings In The World Is A Full Sketchbook Page. Messy, with dozens of heads and animals and trees and studies. Prolific, unhindered sketching has been the most elusive mindset for me recently. This is probably because I finished up grad school and devoted most of my artistic juices toward creating Check Please. It's so difficult to find time to sketch let alone that feeling of effortless sketching. So whenever I find an artist who can fill up sketchbook pages, ...
