Slavoj Žižek has my dream job. I watched him speak in front of a crowd for 45 minutes uninterrupted about whatever he felt like while the host watched helplessly. when he finally finished she said "wise words" and he said "I HATE WISDOM" then started talking again

Hey fellow webcomickers and readers! Did you know that my peers and I have been working on cataloguing all of the webcomics from ALL over the web in one spot for you to check out? You should submit your comic if you haven't, or find a new comic to read! webcomictravelogue.com

So this Saturday I'll be tabling in front of the Arts Market on Danforth, in Toronto! I'm going to bring my easel to do some live painting (weather permitting) and I'll have originals, prints, comics, games, zines, and more! 11-6pm, come say hi and talk shop!

I wish I could be happier about this, but Canadians have a habit of not seeing how things could go south in a hurry, because "at least we're not like the US" is a thought-terminating cliche that gets rolled out every time you try to improve anything. We need to PROTECT this, not sit on our laurels.

I haven't complained about medicine in awhile. Talked about my anemia, and the doctor said "well I guess you need to get your iron under control" "Yes, I took 3 iron pills a day... but I bought up to doctors they told me just get pregnant. What am I suppose to do then" *Awkward silence*

This is the biggest oil pastel painting I've finished so far, at 22" tall. It is a study from my own photograph, and there is a large watercolour underpainting propping up the oil pastels, which really helped give me some incredible colour vibration that, sadly, the camera really can't capture.

Spent some time today reorganizing the page where I share original, traditional artwork I've made. Hoping this makes it easier to see the trends in my work! www.portablecity.net/original-art...

A ceramic sculpture of a small crystal island with blue crystals and a rough castle keep at the top of it.

a surreal horror painting featuring a person wrapped in ornate red fabric with a huge red hat kind of maybe sort of tied to a staff that turns out to be an oar, balancing on a warped and twisted canal boat, floating in black water against a yellow sky with black stars and a distant greenish city, all framed in broken wood and ropes. The person is silhouetted in front of a huge red crescent moon with yellow-white center. The back of the boat boasts a furled and dragging red flag.

A gouache painting of a hotdog stand at night, mostly dark blue except for the cold fluorescent light illuminating the signs and condiments.

a watercolour painting that straddles the line between abstract shapes and a parsable map, in yellows and oranges and blues.

I wrote a bit about getting back into soft pastels! www.portablecity.net/soft-pastels...

A photo of a drawing table, where a square pastel painting of a pigeon is taped to a board, and a set of chalk-shaped soft pastels in rainbow order sits in front. The pigeon painting is unfinished, showing an upshot of a pigeon with sparking bokey trees behind it.

A photo of a stack of four clear plastic trays, each divided into three sections, each section containing paper towles folded up and a smattering of colour-related pastels, eg, a square of reds and oranges, a square of pinks and purples, a square of dark greens, etc.

Catch my wordless risographed fantasy comic, Orin and the Dead Man's Sword, at TCAF this June!

A comic cover featuring a little guy in layered tunics, precariously reaching between red granite islands above a clear lake; all illustrarted in greens and pinks and teals. The title reads Orin and the Dead Man's Sword.

A page of comic panels in black and teal, featuring a little guy walking between cliff walls in shallow water, until he comes to a ruined stone wall with a glowing clearing behind it.

hell yeah #webcomicday ! Allow me to pitch to you a comic or two on the web - they all live at my stories website and are free to read online! stories.portablecity.net

A comic from By Crom! where the narrator and Conan the Barbarian are hanging out on a park bench. Narrator says "What can I do when it feels like the whole universe is out to get me?" Conan replies "First, I would decide if it is a worthy opponent. If not, I prefer to laugh."

A comic page from Orin and the Dead Man's Sword, in teal and black, showing five panels of Orin in shirt and braies swimming down into a clear pool, revealing weedy skulls and ruins at the bottom.

A comic strip from Lomy in the Abyss, showing Lomy and Louis in line at the school cafeteria, each listening to music made visible in illustrated bubbles coming from their headphones. Lomy's is a blue wizard; Louis' is red writhing guts and bones. They competitively turn the volume of their music up until everyone else in line is squeezing out of the way of the oversized illustrated balloons emanating from their headphones.

A panel from A Brief Guide to (Early Onset) Wizard Puberty, showing the wizard dramatically pulling a sparkly cloth off of a crystal ball. They are saying "More seriously though: has this process unlocked something uncanny, powerful, spiritual or occult in them? Fuck no."
