Hey everyone. The friday before Mocca, June 6th, there will be a book release party at Desert Island comics for:

Inkweed By Chris Wright
Neverland by Dave K
Wormdye by Eamon Espey
Fatal Faux-Pas by Sam Gaskin
and
Windy Corner #2 edited by me

It should be a lot of fun! Desert Island is the best comic store in New York!

A page from my sketchbook. Usually when I draw in my sketchbook, I cut things out and paste them into my comics...so all my best drawings aren't in my book. But this is a good page, still intact.

Here is a un-lettered/un-colored page by me...and below a print by Arthur Dove.




When i look at this Arthur Dove print, I always wonder what he thought of it. it seems like something that was important to him---but how could he be sure anyone else would love it? It's so strange and almost unfinished. But he knew it was good.

I am nowhere near Arthur Dove of course---but that's how I feel about my drawings sometimes. I get so much out of them but you can enver be sure anyone will see what you see in them---even when you know there's something to see.

Here is a page from a comic I'm working on now. Not lettered yet.

When I'm away from new York I have a little controlled world. A small table to draw on, a movie to watch later, no job to go to. Very easy. But somehow I get things done in New York despite everything. I am going over the pdf for Windy Corner #2 and all I can think is "when did i have the time to do these drawings?" There is a surge of pride to remember that you made the time.

Above is my tree show drawing for the upcoming giant robot san francisco show.

New mini comic by me

Hey-
I made a short little mini comic. I havent made a mini in almost 4 years! It was really fuin. It's called Sweetheart #1...I'll be putting it out somewhat regularly since Windy Corner takes so long to put out and I always have little comics I want to get out in between. It's $1 plus shipping (another dollar). Send orders to:

282 Broadway Apt #2
Brooklyn, NY
