Blew It
In the winter of 2012 I was pulling myself out of a 6 month Agoraphobia bender. One of my plans to get better was to go to the Pourhouse Cafe and draw for 3 hours everyday. All 50 pages of Blew It were drawn there. I would come up with all the times that I blew it in the last relationship I was in and then draw the scenario.
I think everything I do is funny, even the sad stuff, but this is the first book I've done where everyone who reads it assures me that it's funny. It's gotten a lot of laughs.
I was out of my league, out of practice, and 8 years older. (forgot the tattoos a couple times I guess)
Said all the wrong things.
That Boy Girl Feeling
I drew 'That Boy Girl Feeling' while living in Arizona in the winter of '05. It took about 3 months. It was my first semi-autobiographfical comic book. It's about a weekend with a new girlfriend in my early 20s. Its embarrassingly naive. 70 pages of painful storytelling.
You've Changed
You've Changed was the 2nd book I drew. It was about 50 pages, done with a brush, in the winter of '04. It's 4 stories about animals in failing relationships. I made about 50 copies of it (full size). I then redrew it for some reason in 2006. This version is the only book that I've done with 12 panel pages. I inked it with a tiny Rapidograph Pen size .25.
TROUBLE
Trouble is a 12 page wordless comic I drew in the fall of 2012. I came up with the idea from a nightmare I had. I had gotten into Lynd Ward's work with the epic stories told through bold wordless images. I thought something like that would be the best way to tell the story. I want this to be a movie. A terrifying movie. Lars Von Trier could direct it.
