I am passionate about creating art and have always had a soft spot for making comics in particular. Visceral is my first comic on the internet but I am commissioned to create Whetstone currently. My love of the natural world has inspired the use of physical mediums to create Visceral and that extended to Whetstone. I appreciate everyone's support along this creative journey. I hope you enjoy my current and future creations!

I'm back from my trip and have started my new job working for insurance! Quite a different change from what I am used to doing so it has kept me busier than ever! Please bare with me during this transition. More Whetstone is on the way! :D

Life has been crazy this last month! Now that the convention is over I am back to posting new content. However, I got a 9 to 5 job starting in June so posting will be slowing down to every 2 weeks or as each page gets done. Thanks for your patience everyone!

I have decided to post Whetstone on my Patreon. The completed pages are available to the public, of course. However there are inks, concepts, and other behind the scenes stuff to enjoy too! So if you haven't seen the comic from the beginning, now is the time to join in! :D

When you need to get ready for a convention but you still need to art to pay bills - it's a color 2 pages at the same time kind of day

Hey all! I apologize for being a ghost these last couple weeks. I have been taking some time to prepare some art for Anime Oasis Premium. The event is on May 26-29, 2017. If you want to come by my artist alley booth, you can meet the Whetstone crew, see some fun prints and original pages. Tickets are available at the link below:

I thought it would be fun to include a sneak peek of one the pieces I am working on for it ;)

Stay tuned, posting shall resume soon! :D

We will resume posting Whetstone tomorrow. But what's a cooler way to get hyped than being part of an indie comics anthology? Check out the sample of Whetstone and other indie comics being featured. Please show your love by sharing! See you all on Wednesday! :D
