Keep Secret Prison Free

Philly based comics anthology--super great--keep 'em running with a little donation! There's only 6 days left and they're really close to making their goal! And if they continue to publish through the year, I'll submit comics, get published, be really famous, etc.

Smokey Dokey

Here's another piece for the Portland Mercury, about the tobacco industry in Oregon, roughly paraphrased. This was really fun to draw. Pascal was relatively well-behaved during the creative process i.e. camped out on my lap as I brandished my tablet pen.

Thanks Justin!

Charlie

I'm making a comic book and some etchings based on people I have met in the city that have been or are homeless. Charlie is usually on the Bowery, near some nice graffiti. Banksy spotted him last year and had him pose for this poster:


It was weird seeing this poster at the Sunshine Cinema, only a few blocks away from where it was taken. I asked him about it and he said he got paid $100. That made me kinda mad but Charlie said it was okay. I see Charlie on the way to work most days if the weather is good. He told me sometimes the other men at the housing place try to put curses on him. I tell him that I am sending him good thoughts. I think I gave him California Raisin Hands in the drawing.

Send and Receive

I sent out some cards last week, here's a cute photo of one of my pen pals:
Feeling the love!
