Sneak peek! Here's some of the concept art I created for showing "Lost in Taiwan" to publishers. At the time I thought I had to limit the number of colors in the book to keep it manageable (It's a 235 page story). In the end though I decided to go full color. In stores May 2023

It's Monday so time for another cartoon! I'm not kidding: I completely forgot about this one 😅 But it's a transformation any reluctant dog owner can relate to, I'm sure...

Artwork from MY LAST SUMMER WITH CASS. Throughout the book I used blues and purples for the nighttime scenes, and yellows and reds for the daytime scenes. Here you see the original art, prior to the addition of speech bubbles and text.

Last year around this time, during a break between books, I created a series of 10 cartoons for sharing on Twitter and elsewhere. I thought it might be fun to revisit these, one per week. This one remains as true for me now as it was back then! :)

The Chibi "Glomp!" I originally drew this for a YouTube video, then created a color version for MANGA ART. It's been a great pleasure seeing others use this pose for their own drawings over the years. :)

Illustration from MASTERING MANGA 3. Another of my early efforts at computer coloring. Note how on her arms some of the squares are a slightly lighter shade. This is a trick you can use to make a surface look more solid, less "flat" in appearance.

Hope you all have a great one! Me, I will be handing out candy (and possibly sampling one or two along the way 😅)

Artwork from MASTERING MANGA 3. This was done at a time when I was teaching myself how to color digitally, using Photoshop. I had been adding grey tones to artwork digitally for many years (almost from the dawn of my comics career), but was still new to full digital coloring.

Preparatory art for MY LAST SUMMER WITH CASS. While I liked the idea of starting the story when Megan and Cass were still toddlers, I eventually realized that I needed them old enough to have at least semi-clear memories of events from that time. So I made them slightly older.

This week my Patreon Patron Spotlight is on David Osborn, whose Insta is at: https://t.co/vmszR8iZsa As you can see, he did this marvelous illustration of Talia! He also has created a very cool online comic called Clen-Zing, which you can view here: https://t.co/w3H58wK2QN
