Floating, 2018
A comic about a reverse mermaid floating through life. I wrote and drew this one at a 24 hour comics event at the Comic Bug.

Garbage, 2018
A comic that looks at the alt-right groups of the Unite the Right protest in Charlottesville, VA. Watching this event in LA, it was hard to understand who these people were and where they came from. I take selection of the most prominent alt-right groups represented and talk about their backgrounds and beliefs. It was a way for me to process events that happened to a place I grew up and involved people I knew.

Both of these comics, as well as The West That Always Never Was, are available at any convention that I have a table at.
One of my goals for years has been to table at a convention and this year I fulfilled that goal! So far I’ve tabled at four different events: Long Beach Comic Expo, Wondercon, Joshua Tree Zine Fest, and LA Zine Fest. It’s been great meeting with people and talking about comics and reverse mermaids!

One of my coworkers, the amazing Heekyoung Yum, left earlier this week. We found out suddenly, so all I had time for before she left was a quick silly card doodled during lunch :( Her work is incredibly charming and beautiful and the whole department will miss her dearly!

Watch the Severus Snape & the Marauders here, it’s really good! https://youtu.be/EmsntGGjxiw

A little preview of the painting I’ve been working on for the past couple weeks! I wanted to finish it AGES ago and I’m pretty sure the greyscale version is going to continue to look 10x better than the color version but OH WELL
