My new art spot


Huntington Park! Just 8 blocks or so from my apt


The paintings are beautiful inside Grace Cathedral! The artist used a technique that resembles caran d'Ache strokes rather than blocks of color. 



The shadows from the stain glass windows... When I get too hot from the park, I plan to "seek refuge" from the sun in here. It's quiet so It'll be a good spot to write / brainstorm


And finally Huntington park - across from Grace Cathedral - is my new art/ writing spot. If the weather permits it I'll make the majority of my comic sitting here this summer.




Just for fun, here is a building I can see out my new SF apartment window.

A Real Lake & an Imagined Ocean




Mountain Ranch, California. A 2 day get away to visit my mum and the beautiful lake she lives by! My Brother Ben and I rowed around the lake aimlessly dictating directions row directions to each other (I made him do it for an extended time so I could get in this watercolor sketch in.)


This one is pretty exciting: The first thumbnail sketch of my new summer project! I don't want to give anything away too early on in the brainstorming process, so I'll just call it my contemporary Atlantis project until I decide to reveal more. 



I fleshed the thumbnail out a bit more on photoshop to set the mood.
