It’s Black History Month! To commemorate, I’ll be posting one illustration every day highlighting a black historical figure.

I’m Hosting Another Mini-Comic Workshop

Yeppers – I’m running the How to Make Your Own Mini-Comic workshop again, this time at Cat’s Paw Art Studios in downtown Centre Market of Wheeling, WV!

This workshop will have a $5 cover charge, but in exchange you get snack and drinks while you draw (supplies will be included in the workshop, so the only thing you have to bring is your ideas).

Cat’s Paw Art Studios is also the home of new and gently used art supplies as well as my comics and mini-comics. So if you’re in the downtown Wheeling area, stop by and check it out – it’s one of the coolest shops EVER.

Found Another Shop to Consign With

So in today’s video, not only do I show off some new swag I got from the Wheeling Arts Festival last weekend, but I announce that my minicomics can now be found at a new shop!

If, however, you’re not in Wheeling, WV, Saint Clairsville, OH, or Chicago, IL, you can just order comics directly from me on Storenvy.

Thank you for watching!

You. Are. Awesome.
