There hasn’t been any art up recently because I’ve been getting ready for a big trip, and sadly there still won’t be art for six weeks while I’m travelling. I’m leaving Monday for Prague, Italy, France, and Switzerland - I’ll be keeping a travel comic and will post pages when I get home! SFP will continue to update regularly. Happy summer!
Panel from the next SFP chapter that I ended up replacing, so I thought I’d post the old one on here. www.strongfemaleprotagonist.com
Another piece of art for the Wizards of the Coast art contest. The challenge was to design a soldier or town guard based on concept art of other people from a specific culture. I really love stuff like this!
TCAF was fantastic. I got to meet and chat with a lot of artists I admire, including Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba, Becky Cloonan, Lucy Knisley, Jen Wang, Jeff Smith, and Bryan Lee O’Malley. Of course, I wouldn’t have gotten to meet most of them without Matt Madden introducing me, which I’m very grateful for. SFP sold well - hopefully Brennan and I sowed the seeds of a Canadian following!
Books from TCAF:
De:Tales by Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba. Super beautiful - I read this one on the drive home and it was awesome to meet the artists in person.
Delilah Dirk and the Seeds of Good Fortune by Tony Cliff. Apparently this is a webcomic - I was just pulled in by the cover. I’ll buy most things that have a cool swordswoman on the cover.
The Mire by Becky Cloonan is, I believe, her latest book. I think she’s been a big influence on me without me realizing it. The art in incredible and makes me want to draw fantasy comics.
Minis:
Here at Hogwarts by Lucy Knisley, who went to my high school
Roxie by Steph Mannheim
Black Church by Andy Belanger
Foldout poster by Kris Mukai
A Cabtastic Mini Book of Art by Caroline Breault
Lineart for a piece of concept art, done for the Wizards of the Coast art contest. Color to come soon, when I have a free minute.
It’s finally up! Check out my new webcomic now at www.strongfemaleprotagonist.com. The first ten pages just dropped and it will update twice weekly (Tuesday/Friday).
Submission for a D&D art contest. Comics are great and all, but if I could spend my life drawing awesome fantasy characters I’d be pretty damn happy…
Fresh Meat on Friday was awesome! Props to Cartoon Allies and especially Hilary Alison for organizing. I’ve never tabled at a convention before and it turned out to be super cool to get money for art, who knew?
Concept art for a possible project - more to come!
‘Comics Drawn in the Winter’ - a hand bound collection of short stories and illustrations that I will be selling at Fresh Meat, MoCCA Fest, and TCAF for $5.
