dog comix original art


Now that I'm freelance, I'm trying to do a bunch of stuff during my day. I'm trying my best to keep ink on my hands and I'm working on the next issue of my mini comic "dog comix".

I'm offering this "skunked dog in tub" original art up for sale at $20.00. Please note that this is my first try at this gag. I did a new version because I thought the cans should say "tomato juice" instead of what's here. The first blogger who contacts me gets it. Thanks!!

y'know...


here's a comic page done for th' fun of it! straight outta my brainpan and onto th' bristol. i used my koh-i-noor artpen for everythin', even the borders and letterin'! i like to switch back and forth between that and my trusty and crusty ol' hunts #513. i started usin' sumi black ink 'cause th' higgins eternal black ink wasn't truly waterproof and would bleed when i used whiteout for corrections! no editorial input. no better ideas on how to draw it. just me. just fine...

Cartoon Loonacy #105 cover


hey kids,
i was looking at the gene deitch "cat on a hot thin groove" book and got inspired. i wanted the art to still keep that pencilled look and i was happy with the end result.

the start of another issue of dog comix!


this is how it starts, gang! i fold an 8.5x11 sheet of copy paper into quarters and start sketching. sometimes i'll have an idea and sometimes not. i really enjoy sketching with those col-erase blue pencils and inking with my trusty ol' pen nibs. it's not any fun if you can't get ink all over you...
