Yesterday Jimmy Giegerich and I decided to make "video game fan art day" happen, and these are some of the quick little drawings that resulted on my part. Here are Frog from Chrono Trigger (always in my team) including a little one of him croaking, Alucard from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and of course: Solid Snake. Check out Jimmy's great Ganondorf and also Sam Bosma's rad Chrono!
This is a Gummie Bear Wizard. You may not have heard of them before. They’re jolly and shy, and they mostly stay indoors and eat gummie bears all day.
For Daniel Krall’s ultra-cute, ultra-colorful “Technotwonic” show.
Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon! This silly little strip is my submission to Atomic Books' Mutant! #3, which they'll be releasing for Free Comic Book Day. Check out the previous issues here.
Spoiler alert: she dead! I actually really love Sailor Moon. I collected the comics, and copied the drawings voraciously (there's probably a seriously embarrassing sketchbook full of them somewhere). It was definitely a huge influence...and I might still watch the show.......?
My boyfriend Jimmy and I (much more rarely on my part) collect kaiju figures, and as you can see, we have a good amount (though not compared to the hard core collectors). So, since I see these every time I enter my door, and because they're really a lot of fun and have some wild designs, I decided to do a little painting of Kittyfire. She's one of the few female giant monsters and you can see her there in the right corner of the photo. So many of them have such awesome color variations and this figure has one of my favorites: red-orange on a glow-in-the-dark base. Very nice.
Next I definitely want to paint some Hedorahs once I clear my plate a little! And Agasukeron! Heck yes.

HOLY HELL KALI YOU ARE AMAZING (she got my colors right and everything <3)
Not only is Andrea Kalfas an amazing artist, but she’s my best buddy, all-around lovely lady, AND IT’S HER BIRTHDAY TODAY! THIS IS FOR HER! I wanted to pay her back for her bootylicious gift to me, and I’m sure you can guess what we’ve been watching a lot of, lately. Happy Birthday girl! Thank you for protecting us all with your powers of love and justice and badassery!!!!
I made this struggling little moth for this article in today's New York Times Op-Ed pages. It's about the ongoing battle on women's reproductive health and the author's frustration over the fact that this debate still goes on.
Thanks to AD Matt Dorfman!
This was a fun series I illustrated for the children’s magazine Faces on “The Wizard’s Book”, an Argentinian folk tale about gauchos and life on the pampas. Thanks to my wonderful AD John Sandford.
Today is Kali Ciesemier's birthday. I made this ridiculous thing expressly for her. She's wonderful (and one of my best friends, y'all) so wish her a happy birthday!
