In progress

Working on things for the upcoming convention and reminiscing on my childhood! Stay tuned!

Poor Mick Volume One: Coming Soon!

I'm not going to make excuses for my huge absence from this blog, I promise. Instead, check it out! I finally finally finally after months of working, finished and sent my graphic novel to the publisher! It's going to be available this March for WonderCon. Chapters 1-4 will be in it, that's a total of 123 pages!

Poor Mick

The first 5 pages of my webcomic, Poor Mick are up! Check them out if you are so inclined!

Poor Mick

I've spent the last two days straight sketching the next 86 (yes, I said 86) pages of Poor Mick for the graphic novel hopefully coming out in March! Needless to say, my hand is SORE, but I'm really excited about it. The sketching is always the hardest part, because there is so much to figure out and experiment with and edit. Next up is inking, but I'm giving myself a mental break from that for a little bit; the thought of inking 86 pages makes me tired just thinking about it!

Speaking of Poor Mick, I'm going to be working on the website right after I finish part of a freelance job I'm working on, and after I thumbnail another comic. That's right, I said another comic. (Why do I do this to myself?) My co-worker is working on two (maybe three?) right now, and I shall not be beaten! Hahaha. This one's a small one, though. More on that later!

As always, thanks for tuning in, and I hope you all are having a fine December so far! Xoxo, Kat!

November

Alright kids, I'm sorry for the long, long delay. The truth is, I've tried to update this blog from my phone about three times since the last post but it keeps ... not updating. What a shame! I'll have to do it the old-fashioned way.

So here's what I've been up to lately.

Playing with a bunch of new Golden acrylic samples, I think Prussian Blue Hue and Azurite Hue are my new favorites. A commission I finally finished for Luis. I just finished these the other day. I've been pressing flowers forever and had no idea what to do with them, so I finally just slapped them on some watercolor silhouettes I was doing at the time. I rather like how they turned out!

I've also got a bunch of projects in the works, including finally setting up an official site for Poor Mick and a real updating schedule, which should happen this weekend! Which goes along nicely with the new chapters I just finished writing and now am going to start drawing. (85 more pages, agh, how am I going to get it all done...)

Also perhaps a mini comic in the future...Or two...or five...

As always, I'm much better at updating my tumblr than this blog, if only because it will actually update from my phone, so you can check there for more art updates if you are so inclined! But do check back here from time to time, especially in the future - lots of things happening after the holidays! I'm very excited!

Thanks for sticking with me, everyone! Talk to you soon, xoxo.

APE

Phew! Thanks to everyone at APE 2012! I had an awesome time and it was absolutely a learning experience! I did much better than I thought I would, which is always a nice surprise, made a few awesome connections, and sold out of my comic!! What the heck! I guess I better start taking it really seriously :)

It was a blast and I can't wait to do it again!

Tomorrow!

Well everybody, tomorrow's the day! Tomorrow is my first expo/convention/show/whatever you want to call it, and I'm so unsure of anything but whatever! Diving in head first! If anyone's in the San Francisco area and has an incling towards my humble little comic, feel free to head on over to the Alternative Press Expo and say hi! I'm at the Rojofolio table, I think it's 127.
