Hello everyone! My name is Jaime Mosquera and I'm a comics artist who loves to combine collage and photography with phantasmagoria and the gothic.

Then I was featured in a Latin artist showcase called Artisferio! I finished a 20 page comic mostly in a week for it that I'm very proud of ! This comic is a prequel to #Untitledno89 that I'll post soon!
A small comic with a cover that looks like a missing poster is displayed on a pedestal, with a piece framed above it showing a sheet ghost and panels within it Three frames are displayed showing original comic pages from a new comic

I toned my first set of Thirteen Houses pages so I could pitch them and hopefully bring a sampler to a zinefest (printing went very badly so it did not come with me at the end lol). Going to get back into drawing more soon!
Page framed by dogs looking into the panels. Top two panels show a man sleeping on a mattress in an empty room being woken up by barking. The bottom panels shows him feeding some stray dogs. Text says: "the house was strangely surrounded by a pack of dogs which Jedediah took a shine to, imagining one might become the family pet one day."

Hello everyone it's my birthday 🥳 and what I want most is for y'all to read and share my new #Untitledno89 prequel comic I made! I really want to launch U89 as a webcomic next year so this is a spoiler free teaser for the vibes and aesthetic of the story (1/6)
A missing poster showing a woman with curly short hair and big gold hoops smiling and waving at the camera. Under her picture it says "have you seen this person?" And then there's a list of information typically seen in missing posters like name, age, height, weight, hair color, hair length, eye color, what she was wearing, last seen, all censored. It then says "an Untitled no. 89 story by Jaime A. Mosquera Manchola" A journal entry by Josie written on lined paper bordered by a blue background. "It hasn't rained in a few weeks, and for some reason, that terrifies me. I feel the humidity suffocating me, like the sea that raised me so lovingly is flooding into my lungs and drowning me. It's clouding my brain. Making me think of something Ovidio wrote: 'this island is our sacred body and the sea its destiny; both are in constant terrifying negotiation. The argument between us and our deaths." It's so gruesome, to see fate through the lens of its most unforgiving possibility and none of its beauty. I've never accepted my destiny as anything but beautiful." The next selection is crossed out: " but because of these dreams". Return to regular text: "I can feel the spirits of this island move around me, and it makes me feel naive to believe in the goodness of fate. That my destiny can be dissimilar to theirs. Who decides which lives are lovely, and which are not? The water in the air, the ocean, my body all whisper the same doubt to me:" A ripped piece of the line page says at the top: "is something beautiful coming for me? Or is fate truly hideous?" And a shrouded ghost is collaged onto the blue toned woods, their reflection in the water A call for entries that says: "what does a myth say about a culture and its people's beliefs? How do tragedies and victories become part of the tales we tell for generations? Oriyamar is and island overflowing with stories and meaning. We're looking for art in any medium analyzing Oriyamar's mythology in refreshing and new ways." The rest of the text fading: "please submit high quality images of your work with a title and artist's statement to..."

I was going to wait until Friday to set this up but we had a scare yesterday when our power went out so I’m sharing it today. We only need $325 to keep our power on but we don’t even have that atm. Anything we raise past that will go towards paying off the balance and other bills

Success is being able to make books that make people feel how my inspirations made me feel.

And also on the other side, to be able to sustain myself financially off of my comics
charliestickney.bsky.social Charlie Stickney @charliestickney.bsky.social · Oct 28
Comic creators, what is success for you?

For me, it's having built an audience that empowers me to tell a long-form story. By January we'll have completed the equivalent of 35 DM issues of the White Ash Saga. Not many indie series reach those #'s. And we're just getting started.
We're not alone...
