the third and final new zine out for @dczinefest.bsky.social this year! I am Also a Sum of My Parts is an 8-page exploration of mythical creatures, man's tendency to combine, and imagining new worlds when the one we have isn't enough. Come by the MLK Jr. Memorial Library on 11/1 from 11-4!
the front and back covers of a zine called I am Also a Sum of My Parts. The cover features many different mythical creatures chaotically juxtaposed over each other. An interior illustration of the zine showing blocks of text describing people as chimeras, made up of parts from their experiences with others. A gryphon is drawn stylistically fitting in the empty space between the text.

a halloween-y painting from last year, "Headless Horseman (American Icon)". i have yet to have a headless horseman in a comic even though they are one of my favorite flavors of ghost and allegedly i'm related to one. maybe later
a painting of a headless horseman riding on a black horse, a plume of flame rising from his empty neck. a close-up of the horseman. sparks fly from his fire.

HAPPY HANSIVERSARY!

I cannot believe I've been making this weird little story for ten years officially today, but I know I wouldn't be who I am today if I hadn't taken that leap in 2015. Thank you to everyone who's joined me along the way!
