May I interest you in some choice mushrooms?

People only know who I am when I go to conventions and I’m at work when I’m there so it’s fine (if not still weird to be recognized by somebody you don’t know, which is also how I know I am Good not being famous)

Im glad i get to make the art i want to make and put it out in the world without anybody knowing who i am when i walk down the street. a privilege to be able to create things for people without anybody feeling like i owe them my time and energy, comics is a good way to not be famous and still create

I'm back from maternity leave and in desperate need of some work. If you're looking for some fun colourful cover designs I'm your guy! Here are some book covers I loved illustrating
Contact me at [email protected]
See portfolio link below

Shares & some reassuring words would be much appreciated

A digital illustrated book cover of Cruise Life - Raining Cats and Dogs by Reese Eschmann. It shows a Black girl chasing dogs and cats on the deck of a cruise while her big brother tries to catch up while holding a cat in his arms.

A digital illustrated book cover for the title Unfadeable by Maurice Broaddus. It portrays a mixed Black girl walking by with her pit bull pet, a bridge is seen overhead her, with some cranes in the background and some key characters in the book watches her from a distance.

A digital illustrated book cover titled The Season of Styx Malone
It shows a Black boy with a cap and sunglasses on, her smirks to the viewer, and within his glasses you see the reflection of 2 other Black boys, one smiling back at him with enthusiasm while the other smiles more hesitantly.

A digital illustrated book cover of a picture book titled Bessie the Motorcycle Queen.
It shows Bessie Stringfield on her iconic Hogs (Harleys) against a backdrop of the Grand Canyon.

I have a lot of opinions about Star Trek

askel aden @surmulefyr.bsky.social · 22d

One thing I’ve been getting up to while letting my arm rest is watch all the old Star Trek movies and I got to Generations and I’m sorry but why did you do my guy James T Kirk dirty like that, he deserved a better death

One of the many thought provoking conclusions I arrived at while I was listening to ambient chill music and staring at the ceiling for 2 hours, you’re welcome

Put balding men back in movies and tv as love interests and just generally as people to be attracted to thanks
