A Change Is Gonna Come

I wonder if there is anyone out there who looked at this web site. I wonder why I'm writing this.
What's happening is that I am basically going to take this site, which I started (out of boredom if I'm being honest) as a receptacle for artwork I have done over the years and which otherwise sits around in my flat file, out of sight, and turn it into a web comic book. I don't know what will be deleted but the home page is going to transform from the image portfolio it currently is, into a selection of graphic stories I've been developing. 
​I'll either do that or leave the Abnormal Accumulation page and add a new Home page. Lots of decisions to make and work to do!

I drew this while meeting up with my buddy Jay on ZOOM, for our weekly cartooning session. Jay does animations on his tablet and I draw little talking rocks wandering around in the desert.

Stuck inside because you're snowed in? Make Valentines!
We got just under a foot of snow over the last two days and, inspired by it, I drew this Valentine for my wife.

In an interview, Joseph Mugnaini once said a technique is a manner in which one takes advantage of his propensities and avoids his liabilities. 
I am finding that simple comment very helpful lately as I struggle to finish artwork and avoid slowing down by going with what I'm good at and not trying to force myself at things I am not.

And here it is at last! I received my stack of MORTIMER MEGAZINE VOL. 2, MUSHROOMS AND FUNGI in the mail today and this one's production and everybody's art is beautiful, hilarious and possibly toxic if ingested in large amounts. So KNOW YOUR ART before grabbing it and consuming it! I am honored to have been invited to contribute once again and be included among so many excellent northwest artists!

I was stoked to learn that my good friend Robin Henkel composed music inspired by two of my characters, Trippy The Duck and Jen L. 
After hearing the pieces, I want to make animated cartoons now!!!

Robin is rather a legendary cat down San Diego way. A fixture on the Southern California music scene since the early nineteen seventies, Robin has played in Funk bands, Blues bands, opened for Dizzy Gillespie, taught countless young upstarts, recorded record after record, and generally gotten generations of asses shaking in clubs, concert halls, outdoor stages, you name it. Robin has a guitar style absolutely unmistakable. Check him out:

What am I, chopped liver??

One thing which I suspect is common to most visual artists, is being asked to draw in the manner or style of somebody else. There's nothing wrong with this, really, and I'll bet there are a lot of artists who enjoy showing off their skills in this way.
But for me, it's actually pretty annoying.
When I'm asked something along the lines of "Hey, I gotta hire you to draw a tattoo for me and I'm really into old Spider-Man. Do you think you could draw me as Spider-Man but can you make it look like Steve Ditko drew it??"
Or, "Can you draw my dog but can you make it look like Charles Schulz drew it?" All I hear is the message that apparently I'm not good enough, drawing as myself. 
​I don't know, am I too sensitive?

I loved listening to this. I found it inspiring and I have a feeling I will be listening to it several more times.
