2011: A retrospection
2011 has been a real fuck of a year. Quite honestly, it’s among the worst years of my life, which all in all says some nice things about my life, but when has such shallow perspective ever brought real comfort. Still it caused me to reflect a lot on myself. This often brought up rather unflattering realizations, but also made me realize I had to make some serious changes.
The year got to...

Something I’ve always been secretly aware of in a lot of my comics is that any time I try to draw a character’s mother I usually end up drawing my own mom. Not just in image but in many ways personality. I often try to fight it, to do something that makes it so it’s not my mom, so this character is a creature all its own, but my mom always ends up being the character I feel needs...
