Here are some yonic pictures of grapefruit that may border on pornographic (you have to click on the post to see all 4 of them):
“Genetically modified for taste”
“Apomixis”
“Propagation by grafting”

Victorian Ladies
I've been brainstorming and practicing drawing Victorian women. If anyone knows of a good book or site for studying Victorian clothing, please let me know!

I don't even know
This started as ideas for Pygmalion, but somehow it turned into an Oswald Cobblepot-type character, which (of course) led me to Monocle Joker head. I'm going to look at pictures of Victorian clothing and try sketching again later.
What am I doing?
I went in a slightly different direction than originally planned with my thesis. I'm writing three graphic vignettes in which characters from Ovid's Metamorphoses visit a Freudian psychoanalyst. All three vignettes deal with sexual taboo in some way. I'm thinking of calling it The Selected Case Files of
Dr. Oliver P. Naso: A Physician’s Handbook on Sexual Deviation. I'll be featuring Teiresias (transgender issues solved with Freudian dream interpretation), Pygmalion (objectum sexuality treated with hypnosis), and Iphis, Ianthe, and Ianthe's father (homosexuality).
The treatment is done, and now I'm trying to come up with concept art. I've drawn the psychoanalyst (Dr. Naso) 100000 times, and I'm not even sure that I like the style I'm using right now. It's kind of simple cartoony, and I'd rather use something weirder. Bah. I'm totally open to suggestions if anyone has any ideas/suggestions of artists/works/people/whatever for me to look at to get a new direction on this.

At last!
The Ugly Duck has finally been published and is available for purchase at blurb.com! My friend Rebekah Locke is the author of the book, and I did the illustrations. For an amateur project, I think it turned out very well.

Dear New Orleans,
I'll be reading my fiction next Tuesday at the Columns hotel at 7 p.m. Admission is free!
Acclaimed poet Ana Rabinowitz will also be reading her poetry, so you should at least come see her. =]
I'm so excited/nervous!

Friedrich
"And I just don't want to die alone. I don't want my body to be discovered... just by its stench."
Crimes of passion
"And she didn't even go to prison because in Paris, crimes of passion are forgiven."

This is where I live
Here is my desk, which I am very proud of because I bought it at an estate sale for $10 and repainted myself. I affectionately call it Blood Desk. I spend much of my time here.

Ugly Ducks
Stuff I've been working on for the children's book I'm illustrating. It's about an ugly duckling who never becomes a swan; she just becomes an ugly duck with a good personality. This is where I'm at right now. I need to do backgrounds and clean them up a bit, but they're coming along
Radioactive Boy Sketch #1
This is Radioactive Boy. Someday I will do a whole series about him and his mediocre superpowers, unless I forget about him. I cannot take all of the credit for this illustration. Keaton Postler was the colorist on this one.
Asylum Patient Rough Sketch #1
This bitch looks crazy. I've been experimenting with drawing asylum patients because for my thesis I'm writing a graphic novella in which myths from Ovid and the early 20th century insane asylum will be brought together in one beautiful and perhaps mildly disturbing work.
Sisterly Love
I have a fascination with circus freaks. I wish that I lived in 1904 so that I could hang out at freak shows. I also wish that I had a siamese twin or flippers so that I could start my own museum of human oddities.
Man I saw at the gas station
Randomly drew this in the car at a gas station (maybe during the road trip??). I like his style. Maybe this could be inspiration for one of the doctors in my thesis.
Earthly Delights
These are really old pictures, but I like them. I like to wear things that aren't generally seen as clothing.
