Hi! I just discovered your blog and your amazing artwork, thanks to your gorgeous Korrasami painting, 'Morning Beauty!' I notice that you were even lucky enough to get it signed by Bryan Konietzko! Did you ask him to doodle that cute little Korra and Asami, or did he do that himself??
I only asked for him to sign it, and he sketched the Korrasami remarque himself!
Nevermore
Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven", this piece was done for GUILLERMO DEL TORO: INSPIRATIONS, CURIOSITIES, & OTHER ODDITIES, an art tribute to artist & filmmaker, Guillermo del Toro — curated by @chogrin & exhibited at CoproGallery.
This show will be the fourth in a series of art shows that Chogrin has been putting together in tribute to del Toro that began in 2013 with "Into the Labyrinth & Mind of Guillermo del Toro," followed by "In Service of Monsters" in 2015, and last year's "Labyrinths & Monsters." The theme of this show will pay tribute to del Toro's main sources of inspiration like Edgar Allan Poe, H.P. Lovecraft, Insects, Kaiju, the occult, his favorite films, and much more! Featuring over 50 artists from around the world!
Concept Lacuna
"I'm not a concept. Too many guys think I'm a concept or I complete them or I'm going to make them alive, but I'm just a fucked up girl who is looking for my own peace of mind. Don't assign me yours." - Clementine Kruczynski
Inspired by Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for the Official Focus Features Show at @g1988
In celebration of Game of Thrones returning, I'm taking 25% off my "Ice & Fire" screenprints (using metallic silver & gold inks!)
AND I have the Draw 'Em With the Pointy End Game of Thrones artbook back in stock in my store!
Meanwhile, I’ll be sitting here not-so-secretly shipping Jon x Dany...
One Crow Sorrow
Was super-excited to paint Eric Draven from one of my favorite movies of all time, The Crow, for Guzu Gallery's "Nothing New: Artwork Inspired by the 1990s" show.
All the Moonmen
For the Official Rick & Morty Show at Gallery 1988, I chose to paint Morty with his gaseous friend, Fart. I wanted to portray the transcendant feel Morty experienced during Fart’s Bowie-esque musical number.
The Thing:Artbook - Who all is in this thing??
So, who all is involved with “The Thing:Artbook” you ask? Well, I am here to give you an answer. Listed below is the list of all the artists who have a piece that is included in the book. Some of them have more than one, some produced more than one, but we had to make hard decisions about inclusion.
When we started out on this project, an idea conceived last year in May, and once we had secured the approval from Universal Studios to move ahead, we had hoped to make it a book with primarily comic industry folks because that’s who we knew. Once we started to reach out to folks with information about the project the response was so positive, we decided to branch out a little and include some illustrator friends and designer folks. Again, the response was so overwhelmingly positive we decided to invite whoever we thought we could get on board. Then, people started coming to us as word of the project began to spread. We were blown away and humbled by the caliber of talent who have agreed to be a part of this book.
We hope you will be pleasantly surprised and excited as you go through the list below and see the participants listed. You will probably have heard about many of them already, but hopefully there will be some surprises as well.
The “The Thing: Artbook” will go live for pre-sales Tuesday March 7th at 7pm est at the link below.
The book is expected to ship the first week of July 2017.

I wrote a comic called ‘Sherbet’...
… and you can now buy it on Comixology. In 2014, we Kickstarted our book using this promotional video;
It is, to the best of our knowledge, the only comic in the world about a paranormal detective fashioned after Sherlock Holmes, but who lives in the future, is addicted to all kinds drugs and also happens to be a lesbian.
Now, for just $9.99 you (yes YOU) can look forward to 200 pages of…
… drugs…
… peculiar characters…
… profanity…
… strangeness…
… scares…
… and some gore…
This book was a labour of the weirdest kind of love that the artist Joshua Mathus and I am capable of committing to the page. So what are you waiting for? Buy it and read it today!

Star-Crossed
William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet for @g1988‘s "20 Years Later" show. I wanted to use the neon crosses from Juliet's funeral as both a visual and symbolic barrier between her and Romeo.
Their placement signifies the boundary of the star-crossed enmity between their houses, as well the veil between Life and Death since Juliet took her life first before Romeo followed.
