Patreon launched

Hello team! So I've decided to launch a Patreon campaign for all my personal art endeavors. I'm super nervous but excited to give you all a chance to come with me on this art journey. What is Patreon? On the most basic level, consider it a digital tip jar supporting your favorite artists/musicians/creators. Sometimes they offer exclusives that only patrons will get.  Here's some quick bullet points of what you can expect by supporting me on Patreon:

• Patreon exclusive content and updates
• First look at new artwork, videos and projects
• Work-in-progress sketches and files
• Grab bag and mini-print physical rewards

Phase Two- Sketchbook and Staple! Independent Media Expo March 7-8 2015

Wow, it's been a while, sorry everyone! Do people still use blogspot?

Anyways, how's everyone doing? I've been cooking up plans for "Phase Two" if I can steal a term from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It'll be my second year jumping into the convention scene and I've learned so much since Wizard World Austin 2013. Boy can I write an essay about what conventions to avoid, awful disrespectful experiences, and what cons are amazing for an artist like me, not so much as comic artist. Tangent: You know not many can afford to be "pro" comic artist these days, but I'm still a "pro" concept/vis dev artist who still creates artbooks/sketchbooks and original creator-owned stuff.

Anyways, there's a story behind that, but hey look Staple! Independent Media Expo is happening March 7-8 in Austin, TX! That'll be my first show this year and I'm so excited.

I'm bringing some new goodies to Staple as well. Not only will my artbook, "Coffee and Ramen" be there but I have my first saddle-stitched sketchbook "Chinscratches: A Sketchbook Vol. 1" debuting too! They'll be available first at Staple for purchase and later at the online store. 

  

I have some more amazing exciting announcements coming up soon before Staple. Stay tuned! Thanks team, this is going to be an amazing year!
