Prism Comics!

Hello everyone!  I am scanning in and fixing up a buncha sketches to show everyone, but it’s slow going until Thursday.  In the meantime, I have to say I had a wonderful time at Wonder Con thanks in large part to the folks at Prism Comics.  Prism works to promote LGBTQ creators and works featuring LGBTQ characters.  And they are in fact now looking for more creators, specifically those of us who identify as:

lesbian
bisexual
otherwise queer female
trans
genderqueer/fluid
intersex
create comics about characters who identify as above
and anything that isn’t essentially gay-identified cis men!

Prism is concerned about becoming the kind of boys’ club mainstream comics is, so they asked me to recruit (ahem) for the cause.  If you fit any of these categories, please consider sending in your comics!  And please consider attending Bent Con in LA in December.  I will be tabling and am brainstorming panels on intersecting topics of comics and queerness.  If you have any ideas or suggestions, please let me know! :D

Wonder Con Deets

Soon off to Wonder Con in Anaheim!

I am going to hang around the Prism Comics booth now and again between doing my rounds.  I have two signings there: Friday at 5pm and Saturday at 4pm.  Plus, I will be participating in the panel THE BAD AND THE BOLD: PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES WITH LGBT CHARACTERS at 6:30pm on Friday.  I will not be at the con Sunday so if you’d like to say hi, the signings are your best bet!

Oh yeah, and re: Acrobats. I’m on a deadline for an illustration for another project, hence the delay.  I just started inking the next page so it should be up soonish.

Wonder Con Solidifies!

I am nailing down my Wonder Con schedule.  I should be there Friday afternoon and all of Saturday, not sure about Sunday.  I will not have my own table - rather, I will be hanging around the Prism Comics booth.  They have Picnic on the Moon, Disconnect, and Flesh Games for sale but no prints this time around. I will be doing a signing there, also, the time of which I will update soon!

This is the panel I’m participating in: “The Bad and The Bold: Pushing the Boundaries with LGBT Characters” Room 211AB.  Friday, 6:30-7:30pm!  Proudly brought to you by the letter B, if you didn’t already know. :>

Wonder Con

So looks like I will be going to Wonder Con even though it moved to Anaheim this year.  I was invited to participate on a panel about LGBT characters in comics (woo!)  Well it’s really more specific than that but I’ll update with more info closer to the date.  It’s the weekend of March 16-18th.

Job

I found a new reception job in the city, which I am stoked about.  I told one of my bosses and her response was:

We knew we were safe when you were applying to jobs in your field… but when we heard you were applying to veterinary reception jobs and thought, “uh oh…”

I don’t think she meant it to be an insult, but yes, “my field” means anything having to do with art.

If I think about it logically, my life makes sense: I was torn as a child between working with animals or doing art, and now I do both, and on my own terms.  I have stable employment and am self-reliant.  I do only art projects that interest me and that I find fun to do.  Yet from the tone of voice and what folks say to me, I get the impression that people think there is only one option to pick.  Either I must be desperate to finally get into “my field” because nothing else could make me happy, or I am now finally working in the field I wanted and should go back to school to study what I am really interested in.  Perplexing.

Hello Hello!

Hi Everyone!  So I’m hopping the Tumblr train…  Woo!  I think this will make it easier for me to stay caught up with friends and artists and easier for tumblr fans to follow me.  I will still keep tweeting, facebooking, deviantarting, and updating my Wordpress blog.  :)  And since this is my first post, it fits I link the first page of Acrobats in over a month!
