Years back, some Toonboom folks took the elevator down to Sphere and asked @kanthara.bsky.social and I whether it would be worthwhile to add curvilinear perspective to the Harmony guides. We very emphatically said yes. Later, Karine called for this quick 180 and I drew it. Color by Ezekiel Soares.

All the knitting, done. Just need to weave in the ends. Wearing it feels like a hug.

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION! Did you know the Ringo Awards are open for nominations? I sure didn't. Please consider nominating my latest graphic novel HELLAWEEN: Spellbent ringoawards.com #ringoawards #comics #halfwaytohalloween

Cool project coming but delays and lack of confirmation eat at me and I'm trying to keep my composure but aaaaaaaaaaaaaaghhh

I just want to say how grateful I am to have so many good people in my life. If you have friends/family that are truly making your life better just by being in it, let them know. Because chances are, they need to hear it, and/or let you know it's mutual.

Part 2 of my unscripted collaborative comic with @kanthara.bsky.social is up for patrons! We're talkin' 'bout 'pausin' 😎 www.patreon.com/posts/124931...

My friend @kanthara.bsky.social and I are doing an unscripted collaborative comic about our stumbling into peri/menopause! We're digitally passing the same page back and forth, responding to each other's drawings and text. First installment is up for my patrons: www.patreon.com/posts/124833...

YAY! The first show I directed is out today on the Youtube channel Marble Kids! You can see the trailer here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9JQ... And all 7 episodes should be posted by Sunday!

Yesterday was Hourly Comic Day! I posted these on Instagram yesterday. Let me regale you with my exciting adventures!

Over the Holidays, I knit a scarf with sleeves on a knitting loom. It turned out terrible: it's curling inwards and won't block, and it's not wide enough. So I decided to start over, unravelling the first attempt as I knit the new one with a bigger loom and better, more fun pattern that won't curl.

I keep thinking about the plot holes thing and I'm remembering a video I saw recently. It was a review of Saving Me, a show on which I was the storyboard supervisor then assistant director. Many of the complaints the reviewer had were, in his opinion, plot holes.

Last day off today before getting back to work tomorrow. This new year will bring several changes to my work life and that will require adjustments in my schedule. I'm just in a bit of an incertainty limbo about one aspect and it's making me antsy, I want confirmation so I can plan!

Feeling useful is not a good substitute for feeling passionate.

THIS. Let storytellers tell their story. Even if it doesn't go how you expect. Even if the character's reaction makes you angry. Be patient. Sure, discuss, speculate, analyse, but keep in mind that different creators think differently, and if stories went exactly how you expect, they'd be boring.

I can’t believe it’s real and it’s here !!! 😭💕✨ youtu.be/T7u5pnP7beA?...

Stop Forcing A.I. into Fucking EVERYTHING!

It's time for Artist vs Art and here is mine. I have done very little digital work outside of actual work, so I chose analog pieces. All of these are from the same sketchbook - amazing how much the lighting changes the colour of the paper!

After I finished the first recycled jeans bag, my husband gave me another dead pair of jeans. He also had complained before about not having a light laptop bag for when he travels for work. He prefers to pack everything in a small duffel and do carry-on. So I did my crafty wife thing. :)
