And then I looked at my hand. And then I fainted.

(Originally published May 30, 2022)

When I was about eighteen years old, I fell off my roof. Normally I climbed the fence to escape to my safe, beautiful sunny spot, but this time my cousin was visiting and I thought it would be safer for us to use the ladder, since she didn’t have practic...

W-A-L-K (Garden Update)

(Originally published June 3, 2022)

In the mornings I take Tig out on her promenade, which is her daily W-A-L-K around the backyard in her harness and leash. Matt always spells out W-A-L-K when he asks if The Madame (Tig) has gone outside yet, because the dogs he grew up with understood the word "walk" so his family would say DOUBLEYEW-AYE-ELL-KAY<...

Sketchbook


Dude, I finished my whole sketchbook in SIX MONTHS.

Normally I takes me over a year and that’s mostly filling it up with lists and writing and I always leave a handful of the pages blank at the end before I start the next one. But this one?

Jet Lag Garden

(Originally published June 23, 2022)

Matt and I are back from our trip and the jet lag is a fascinating experience. It’s funny, he had a harder time adjusting to the time change when we went out but has handled our return to Portland pretty easily while I was/am the exact opposite. Help. I feel like my head is in a bowl of water.

COMIC: I am turning 39 this month

(Originally published June 17, 2022)

Matt and I are on the road so I was reduced to creating this comic as my foremothers did in the Stone Age: with paper and pen and “scanning” it in by taking photos of each panel on my phone.

Content Advisory:

This is a comic discussing my own body-negative thoughts I have about myself as I’m tiptoeing up to middle-age. View Post

BEHIND THE SCENES: "(This Isn't) Normal" comic

My approach for the (This Isn't) Normal comic was more experimental and I think the underlying roughs are kind of interesting in and of themselves, so here! For you. I share.

I recorded myself doing my hair totally normally, the same I would if I weren't being taped, and then took screen captures of the key poses that caught my eye the most.

After I had sketched...
