Here's A Strip I Recently Completed For Benn Ray Of Atomic Books' "Said What?" Collection Of Over-heards.

Hello little guy.  Amidst the stress of filing taxes, a cruelly indecisive springtime, and car insurance payments, this little robin was born.  Sometimes you just need to make something pretty and meaningless.

I did this piece for an article in the New York Times about how a survivor of domestic abuse is drawn to listening to true crime podcasts. You can read the article online here.

Hi! I was wondering if it's possible to submit art for the twin peaks zine, or if you're just selecting from certain artists you know. I'd love to make sure that there is some log lady coverage in the publication, but let me know when you have the time. Thanks!

Hi there! I'm late in replying to this. Sorry about that!

I've been asked this question many times now, so consider this my general answer to everyone. Thanks so much for asking, but unfortunately, I invited the artists in the Twin Peaks zine to take part privately, so submissions were never open. This is my first anthology-style zine, so I debated for a while whether I wanted to open up submissions for it, or curate artists by invitation. In the end I felt more comfortable asking artists because I simply wasn't sure if many people would respond to an open invitation. But folks seem really psyched about it, which is just fantastic, and even though the zine is now full-up with artists, it appears an open call would have worked out fine! I'm only sorry I can't make a book out of everyone's work. Next time, if I make another one, I plan to open it up for submissions.

And don't worry! The Log Lady will get plenty of love!

Wow! You're work is so good! I really like it. Ho do you get such great digital images of your stuff? So good!

Thanks so much! I scan things at really high res and then adjust the levels in photoshop to match the originals as best I can. It can be a obsessive task!

I had the opportunity to work with Meg Mateo Ilasco at Anthology Magazine recently for their 2013 Winter and Spring issues. Here's my illustration for their seasonal Screen Play article and a map (which I rarely get the chance to do!) for their feature on Oakland. These were both uniquely-proportioned layouts and so this was a fun exercise. Anthology is a beautifully designed and curated magazine, so if you haven't already, definitely check it out!

EDIT: I'd credited Anh-Minh Le as my art director initially, whereas Anh-Minh is the editor of Anthology. My mistake! 

Girls. All I really want is girls.

This is one of my rejected sketches for how to go about drawing Edward.  It didn't make the cut, but I just love looking at it!  It's hilarious to me.

I made screenprints of my "Pest Control" illustration. Aw yes halftone.

Jimmy started the cutest, funniest daily tumblr and everyone should check it out everyday and remember the things that we loved when we were 6-year-old babies in the world.

Welcome to i like monsrs wen they fite!  20 years ago today I started second grade at an elementary school in upstate New York.  My teacher had us keep daily journals where we’d write and draw pictures.  I found this journal a few years ago and have decided now, exactly 20 years later, I need to share my drawings of monsters, Street Fighter II, dinosaurs, monsters, Mortal Kombat, X-Men, and monsters, as well as my teacher’s pretty passive aggressive responses to them.  This blog will be updated almost daily with a new page from my journal on the day that I drew it.

Reblogging my own post because GOBLIN. THE GOBLIN. IS IN BALTIMORE. TOnight. And I'm gonna see them and wear my own dumb shirt and it's gonna be the strangest, most rad time, and everyone? go ahead. be jealous.

"Suzy, do you know anything about…witches?"

Suspiria, a masterpiece by Dario Argento. This trippy, amazingly surreal horror film is the subject of my newest tshirt design for Pizza Party Printing's upcoming movie night at the Ottobar. They'll be showing not only Suspiria, but the 1989 horror, The Church (paired with a fucking metal shirt by Jimmy Giegerich), so if you’re in Baltimore at the end of the month, be there! Immerse yourself in blood and beer (and the music of the one, the only Goblin). It’s gonna be spooky.

The Suspiria shirt is up for sale now at Pizza Party! Pick one up while you can!
