Aaah! ⛈️⚡⛈️

"Diane, 11:30 a.m., February 24th. Entering the town of Twin Peaks" I painted these years ago as part of @pushpullseattle.bsky.social's Twin Peaks art show. There was also a portrait of their son, Wally Brando, but it sold to a mystery buyer... #twinpeaksday

Review: the art was really nice but the story didn't have much. And it could have used a song.

When you go see Dogman at 10am there's no one else on the theater

See a knight, post a knight

I needed some good news.

At the school fundraiser meeting today another parent said "we have a parent at this school who is a comic book artist, they were disappointed they missed the chance to donate some artwork--" And it wasn't me so WHO ARE THEY? Where is my fellow weirdo and what grade is their kid in??

Another comforting email from Sen Jamie Pedersen
