My superpower is every time I walk through a doorway, my mind gets wiped, and I instantly forget why I walked into that room.

Robot girl curled up in a "fallen angel" pose. Wires plugging into her back and splaying out behind her. Background has the words "crybaby" and 3 panels suggest the features that the robot girl is equipped with: bionic eye v.2, fuel pump chambers a-f, and advanced pain receptor v.4

My partner @alpivictoralpi.bsky.social and I collaborated on this piece for a sad robot girl zine. I did the composition and under drawing, he inked it, and then I added the tones in post.

Comic collaborators to lovers arc is my favorite trope.

Some cute faces I drew recently. I really like this character, if it's not obvious.

Comic title: how I spent my spring break by Prof Laxton. Panel one: "phew! I hope i manage to get some rest this week". Panel two: instead! I worked on my graphic novel, "228 pages to go!". Panel three: deep cleaned the house. Panel four: and had an existential crisis over whether or not to play a videogame. "What's the point?"

Spring break came and went forever ago, but now that school is wrapping up I'm trying to get more active on social media again. Here is a comic I made before classes started!

I am putting some distance between myself and social media right now. Not because I want to ignore what's happening but because I need to focus on where I can make the most positive impact. For me, it's in my classroom and through my work.

I was planning to wipe my drive for a while but never got around to it. I guess I waited too long and now the leopards are eating my face ๐Ÿ˜”

I've come to the conclusion that Google has trained its AI on all the dog slop I had on my drive in a dystopian effort to make my life easier(?) But I can not express how invasive that felt. Google drive ain't safe, babes.

I have not accessed anything on my drive from my phone, nor have I even opened that document since I wrote it years ago.... what the actual fuck.

I was typing the prev post, and one of the autocorrect suggestions was the name of an OC I used to write about. And when I tapped through the word suggestions to see wtf would pop up, it literally started generating a near-exact sentence from a piece I wrote and kept on my Google drive

Uhm, okay. Just had a spooky black mirror experience. Can someone explain this:

I was commissioned by a friend to do the cover for her book, and she just announced it officially yesterday. Here is the cover and a process shot. I did the cityscape with marker and gouache. It was my first time getting into gouache as well.

Thank you! It was originally going to be just black and white but then my partner convinced the commissioner to ask for color.

I hit my self-imposed deadline. Now I can work at a slightly less frantic, but still somewhat harried pace.

Comics fam, Iโ€™m going to be looking to hire a colorist for a graphic novel Iโ€™m working on likely in mid to late January. If you have availability in early 2025, hit me up.

I am experimenting with some digital screentones I made from security envelope patterns. So far, I am really happy with the results and will probably compile the patterns i have for others to use. That being said, if you get an envelope with a really cool pattern on the inside, send it to me!
