Bat boy!
This little cutie was the subject of another gouache demo given to illustration students at MICA. He's the finish of this work-in-progress shot.
I love him...
We’re snowed-in here in Baltimore, and it’s making me miss warmer weather, green things, flora...
So here is a beer label I designed and illustrated for Union Craft Brewing’s special spring-time saison that they crafted exclusively for Atomic Books in Hampden. A wonderful pairing of comics “for mutated minds” and a light, fruity ale.
I've always wanted to illustrate beer and wine labels and this was a really fun way to dip my toe in. I hope I get the chance to do more!
New piece for the NY Times about how educated and professionally-driven women have risen in men's tastes. Check out the article in the Sunday Review. Thanks to AD Aviva Michaelov!
Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon! This silly little strip is my submission to Atomic Books' Mutant! #3, which they'll be releasing for Free Comic Book Day. Check out the previous issues here.
Spoiler alert: she dead! I actually really love Sailor Moon. I collected the comics, and copied the drawings voraciously (there's probably a seriously embarrassing sketchbook full of them somewhere). It was definitely a huge influence...and I might still watch the show.......?
New illustration for the New York Times Letters section. This one's about reigning in health care costs by taking away numerous, sometimes needless testing rather than rationing who gets what care. You can read the article here. Art direction by Alexandra Zsigmond.
Happy Inception Day, Roy Batty

It's really sweet to see my Alphabirds in the little hands of little kids. I hope she likes her new bird letter friends! You can buy prints of my Alphabirds and other children's-themed artwork at The Littlest Mammoth.

I liked that NYT illustration so much when I first saw it earlier this week; I'm glad it showed up again in my Tumblr feed. Your art is really fantastic, and it encourages me to keep drawing! Best, Sam
Thank you so much!! Your kind words will encourage me to keep drawing too! (Let's all keep drawing!)
I created my own cover illustration of William Gibson’s Neuromancer (one of my favorites) for Atomic Book’s “Jackets and Sleeves” show. Up for just a little while longer at Atomic!
"Hold me."
"I can't."
Here's my latest tshirt design for Pizza Party Printing: Edward Scissorhands! 3-color screen-printed on soft black cotton, for you gentle romantics. You can preorder your own shirt here (Pizza Party offers more options during preorder, so say you want this on a hoodie? you can get that!), and if you're in Charm City, come to the movie event at the Windup Space on the 21st.
I opened a store on Society 6! In addition to art prints, you'll also find a few iphone cases and a t-shirt featuring my moths. Go on and check it out! Is there anything I've done that you'd really like to see for sale? Feel free to let me know!
Thanks guys.
