My comic STARBLOOD is out!
πŸ’–πŸ’«πŸͺ©βœ¨

When the trophy husband of the richest man in the galaxy crashlands on an asteroid-bound casino, the inhabitants believe the explosion that sent him here was NO ACCIDENT.

Is his husband really trying to kill him?

Cartoon illustration sketch of an angry tooth.

I had a decaying molar and a wisdom tooth removed a couple of days ago. Just before going in, I made this angry tooth cartoon. I call him Cav.

Stop telling people to smile. It's nobody's responsibility to appeal to your sense of aesthetics. Let people feel whatever they are feeling and look however they need to look.

This piece is part of a series of disgruntled animal portraits captioned by quotes that people insensitively say to people who struggle with chronic & mental illness. This art is a criticism of ineffective social behavior.

Or the generalized "things will get better" even. It's always fun to hear that everyone is a psychic.

Illustration of myself sitting at a table while on the phone with an insensitive Doctor asking "Have you tried eliminating stress from your life?" On the table is a can of cola zero, a paper listing dietary restrictions, a mug of coffee, and four bottles of medicine. To my sides are a cat trying to get my attention and a television featuring the news reporting another deadly ICE raid. Behind me is a calendar with most of the days X'd out, a list of bills, a list of things I need to do, and a list of commissions that I need to finish. Outside of the viewing area one of my kids is yelling "Dad!!!".

I didn't get as far as I would have liked last night due to an ear infection and high blood pressure. All in all, though, it's looking snazzy.
