The veggie garden is doing pretty well so far this year. Planted broccoli, potatoes, tomatoes, onions, 3 types of peppers, cucumbers, yellow squash, jerusalem artichokes, and a couple varieties of green beans. While I didn't plant them this year a few sunflowers have started to come up as well!

Happy Star Wars Day! The genesis of my love of comics. I must have flipped through its pages hundreds of times over the years. Dazzled by the oversized Al Williamson art. It has survived 46 years and three brothers, held together with Scotch and duct tape. I treasure it nonetheless.

A digital drawing of a cryptid from my home state of New Jersey, The Jersey Devil, done completely in ClipStudioPaint. I think I'm going to keep going down the cryptid path, any suggestions for future drawings?

Saw this Pileated Woodpecker while out doing some errands this morning. Was able to get a few shaky shots of him through the car window before he flew off.
