I did this artwork about Solo : A Star Wars Story for an upcoming exhibition about Star Wars Universe. Donald Glover looks so cool as Lando and I can’t wait to watch the Phoebe Waller-Bridge robot !
Bloom is a beautiful, beautiful graphic novel about falling in love, growing up, and BAKING, from my friends @kevinpanetta and @savi-bunny. Seriously. I’ve read it.

If you’re someone who wants to see more queer stories out here in the world, keep an eye out for Bloom.
A new book from Big Planet’s own Kevin Panetta!
