Josue Cruz

Look at this wolf, isn’t he neat?

If you enjoy puzzle games, the demo alone got me hooked. Great art and if the demo is any indicator, fun and challenging!

Graphic featuring a list for Josue’s upcoming events, a caricature of the artists is drawn next to the list hands on their mouth in thinking pose, the speech bubble coming from them reads: “Hm… gotta make sure I schedule in some loafin’ around time!” The events are as follows: March 12th 6-10pm Nightlife: Level Up will be a +21 gaming and cosplay event happening next week at the Academy of Sciences. I’ll have a table there. April 1st 3pm PLCAF: Comics Jam Workshop, will be my all-ages comic collaboration I hosted last year at the South San Francisco Public Library. April 4th 10am-4pm PLCAF: Small Press Expo, is where I will also have a table. Haven’t been to the show itself but here it is a blast. April (to be determined) PLCAF: How to Draw an Octopus, a drawing workshop run by @ssjulianof @octopolis_comic , with @dannajoystaaf and myself as co-hosts. Date is still being worked out.

Howdy!

I have a few events this Spring where I’ll have a table or be running workshops in and around San Francisco. Details in the alt text.

requiem for vanished birdsong

A few Q&A’s I did regarding the matter.

I couldn’t get the thing to export right but I thought this was a fun way to get to know me!

If you want to read voices of young artists in Iran, please support the comics anthology "Young in Iran" published with @comicsworkshop.bsky.social It's 264 pages, 6x9 inches, and was censored by Kickstarter. Take a look: www.sequentialartistsworkshop.org/saw-shop/p/y...

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Nice and niche 🙂‍↕️🌸

Opening up commissions! These are the things I’m most comfortable doing but down for most creative projects. Didn’t put comics on here but always down to talk those too, so hit me up. Using the email on the sheets or DMs on here work fine. 🤘

another reminder that I am taking character design commissions! DM me if you're looking for that sort of thing, or email me via linktree in my bio (also please repost if you're passing by!)

She sings of things yet to come, in melodies of shattered bones and dripping entrails, her voice carried on breath heavy with blood and rotting gardenias

Lovely designs!

Just about! There are a total of about 15 assets, but yeah you could just do this with the head layer, body layer, an the background layer. The hands popping out of course add additional laters, and there is a faux shadow where I used the little me animation filled with black, blurred, and sheared!

Hahahh excellent!!

WOWOW!!! ✨🤯✨

3 text boxes float down the composition of a scene depicting a crying young woman in voluminous late 1830s gown and bonnet sits on the sunny side of a tree. In the shadows on the other sits a horned beast in a antiquated 16th century clothes, peeking back at the woman. Both sport pink and blue, complimenting each other. text on page reads: I don't know how they're always able to find me... But their company is appreciated, never adding to my distress. They'll even ask about my slate of worries and woes, offering advice if they have any to give. Someday I'll be permitted to look them in the eye, and thank them for the friendship-without the fear of being devoured...

TFW the pressures of "polite" society are just too much, you run off to the woods to cry and accidentally befriend its lord 🫣🌿💕
