A four-panel black-and-white comic strip in a bold cartoon style with halftone dot shading. Panel 1 (top left): Scott, the large bearded man, looks down at a tiny fairy-like creature hovering beside him. Two speech bubbles read "HEY BUDDY" and "I'VE BEEN FEELING PRETTY AWKWARD LATELY." Panel 2 (top right): A closer view of the small fairy — a simple stick-figure-like character with dragonfly wings, wide eyes, and an open mouth — responding with two bubbles: "THAT'S ROUGH" and "HAVE YOU CONSIDERED IT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE A BIG WEIRDO." Panel 3 (bottom left): A silent close-up of Scott's face, staring ahead with a flat, unreadable expression. No speech bubbles — just the reaction. Panel 4 (bottom right): The fairy returns, visibly flustered, with two rapid speech bubbles: "I SAY THAT WITH LOVE" and "OKAY, I SEE HOW THAT CAME OUT WRONG."

"I say that with love." — someone who absolutely did not think that through.  Sometimes your most honest friend is a tiny fairy with zero filter.

So I am trying out a new system starting this week. I am going to start drawing a comic on one morning and finish it on the next and then start on the next comic. Maybe that will mean a regular schedule. As a reminder we have a store now. You can find it at Back40Arts over on Etsy. If you’re looking for a custom card or drawing let me know.

We have a store!

I do in fact have a shop… now.. Okay it’s an Etsy shop but that should work out for the best. You can find it at Back40Arts over on Etsy. Please do stop and look around. It’s a bit sparse yet but more to come soon. We will be listing items from both myself and my family. Eventually we will have sketches, photos, crafts, quilts, and likely more for you.

So things are actually good.
  • I still want to upload the years of old strips. I’m torn between waiting until the comic easel bulk up-loader works and just doing a week at a time until I’ve caught up.
  • No comic this morning due to snowplowing. We got 12 inches of snow and I normally get up early to draw but instead I had to plow the driveway. Maybe tonight.
  • Holiday Geek Expo was a blast and profitable. I still have some prints for sale and I think I’m going to blow out my old sketch cards to freshen the set up.
