STEAMPUNK HOLLOW
Hadn’t done a proper pen and ink piece in awhile, and it’s made my mouth water for more.

I don’t really post much anymore, but I was happy how this pen and ink turned out.

VENOM!
I hadn’t drawn on a black variant blank before, but I enjoyed the challenge!

#scbwiArtober2025 Day 5: Eyes
My apologies if it’s a bit too freaky. I’ve been dwelling on the idea of eyes being windows to the soul. While working, it also brought to mind Junji Ito’s work, not that my stuff even compares.

Representing @okcomicarts.bsky.social for DICK TRACY DAY in Pawnee, home to Chester Gould, creator of Dick Tracy. Even met one of his grandchildren. He had awesome stories.

On Wednesday, my bud, @karammitchell.com, graciously drove us to LITTLE ROCK (5 hours away!) to see and hear from the incredible John Hendrix! His awe-striking exhibit and keynote was precisely what I needed to reenergize my creative side.

Busy catching up on clients, personal projects and LIFE, but I did want to at least show the art I created for the @okcomicarts.bsky.social trading card set made exclusively for the festival. They wildly sold out. Definitely doing that again next year.

“ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT OKLAHOMA DUMPSTER FIRES”

My (subtly political) piece for Canopy’s Little Trees exhibition! Show opening is Thursday, September 11, from 6-9pm. If you haven’t been to Canopy, it’s a fun art vibe! Hope you’ll drop by!

I drew Rumble live and then auctioned it off at the opening for the @okcomicarts.bsky.social gallery exhibition, which will be on display for a month at Oklahoma Contemporary. It was quite thrilling to see so many in attendance last night.

Proud to show off my shirt design for Oklahoma Comic Arts Festival! My favorite shirt printer, THE OKAY SEE tee company, will be live printing this and Robert Wilson IV’s awesome design all day at #OCAF2025! STOKED for that day.

What a full weekend! New World Comic Con was a wonderful event, of course, but also spent Sunday doing a fun project! More to come, but this here photo is a small hint.

The 10th New World Comic Con is THIS SATURDAY! I’ve had the honor to create the con tee for many of them, and this year is no exception. Get it exclusively at the con and live printed fresh from The Okay See! (At the OK State Fairgrounds Expo Hall, 10am-7pm!)
