        not gonna lie: writing two issues at once rules. changing up the process
helps keep things fresh. watched something that said human beings love
        mastery, in some cases more than money. still, gotta get that cake up.

we know her as the little pregnant girl with the hair wrap. now that power

has shifted in Trinadot she may decide to forgo hair covering. in this sketch

her skin tone is much lighter and peachier than typically which would be more

olive mocha, this was due to the availability of pencils at the time. drawn for

commemorative SPX card.

Trinadot Issue 3 cover

July 27th, 2011 Wednesday, 2:40 pm

with the heat and the furious effort to complete Issue 3 in time for Comixpress to print for SPX

and the sun's proximity to earth you could say that i have earned the description "feverishly toiling"

while others are undoubtedly tubing. those lucky fools and their incessant, enviable tubing on the

Gunpowder. to dampen the rage I've been listening to old gospel and rejoicing that at 48 pages Trinadot

#3 is the longest in the series so far. #4 and #5 will be written together to bring the first graphic

novel to a close.

the enduring music that sustained me during the last stretch in squalor and heat:

Washington Philips - train your child from i am born to preach the gospel, Silver Leaf Quartette of

Norfolk from oh! glory glory, Peerless Four - noah from southern journey vol 8: velvet voices, Johnny

Cash - were you there (when they crucified my lord from the legend, Clara Ward - how i got over from

the history of black gospel volume 2, Sister O.M. Terrell - swing low, chariot from bottles, knives, steel,

Fisk Jubilee Singers - ezekiel saw de wheel from folk, gospel & blues: will the circle be unbroken, Rev

Gary Davis - twelve gates to the city from if i had my way, The Soul Stirrers - jesus gave me water,

Heavenly Gospel Singers - you go and i'll go with you from heavenly gospel singers vol 2 (1936-1937), and

The Sensational Nightingales - at the meeting from it's gonna rain again.

Eventually Everyone Wants To Go Home

Colored Pencil on Tinted Paper

July 1st, 2011 Friday, 8:32 pm

As suspected this year is proving to be sort of amazingly awesome. I have an interesting cocktail of green tea in a jar and vodka and limeade

in a mug. The sky has become pale in the evening and I might've just posted somewhat irresponsibly on a random blog. But ramifications

have yet to unfold. I am working to my Trinadot deadline while listening to Harry Potter yet again. It's as much of an addiction as anything

else. Those that can center themselves without the use of chemicals or young adult fiction are truly intriguing individuals. I have actions

to program - excuse me.

A collection of vibrating cells cooperating to be you. Love those little cells that choose to make

up your circulatory system. They made a deal with your soul: Take us with you, take good care,

and we'll see the world.

prismacolor pencil sketch in new sketchbook

Friday, April 15th, 2011 3:42 pm

This blog has nursed it's varying offspring and now is letting them forage into new territories. New painting is on flickr, illustration on tumblr.

Also, there's a Trinadot tumblr which has the wonderful option to schedule posts! Technology does it again. So what about this place which

has parented these organisms of mine? It transitions into a more traditional form with sketches and musings. Books I've listened to of late:

The Swiss Family Robinson by Johan David Wyss, The Water Babies by Charles Kingsley, and Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe. Notice they are

all in the public domain and so very free. If I decide to comment on readings in the future it will be here.

excerpt of btta entry (color version)

Friday, April 15, 2011 3:05 pm

As of 5 minutes ago I put down the pen after inking the first panel of the 25th page of issue 3 of Trinadot.

My wheels have been spinning with plans for the BTTA book release and with getting my place ready to

recieve visitors. New paintings adorn the walls and the laundry will be hung to dry in the sun. Just

watched, or rather, listened to Pom Poko for the third time. I need to go on a hike and smell dirt and

splash around in a brook or something.
