Sketch Days: Etienne

One day I’m going to write more Punchin’ Bag, do a Kickstarter about it, and offer trading cards as a freebie. That’s at least one other graphic novel away, so in the meantime here are some images. This one’s Etienne, my melancholic Canada goose.

Inktobird Posts – Part 1

A whippoorwill on my parents’ garage in the soft glow of the moon

When I was young, probably a young teenager, a whippoorwill decided to take up residence on my parent’s garage. Despite being a ground bird, I swear this one posted up on the roof, meaning his (nocturnal) calls were muffled for my parents on the first floor, and seemed to be funneled directly at me. I threw open the window, hollering at the thing to try and get it to leave. Though it was dark, I thought I could make out this lump on the roof, steadfastly remaining to continue his call throughout the night.
