NYC MoCCa

So this weekend I went to MoCCa in NYC, in SoHo, for the comic art fest...
It was a lot of fun..I got to drop my book off at a few publishers, like Top Shelf, the people that publish Flight...Meat Haus
And a few artists...
It was really fun...a little overwhelming..but great.
I got to meet a lot of my favorite artists.. including Farel Dalrymple... whom I really admire.
I was so totally awkward when I met him...but he did a drawing in my sketchbook!
So it was worth it.
Hahha

Anyhoo- if any of you want a copy of Malarkey, our comic anthology, get intouch with me!
More old doodles-es.

These drawings didn't scan so well... I have a moleskin with creamy off-white pages...and even with tweaking my levels in photoshop... my pencil lines get a little lost. And in the last drawing especially... I was goofing around with a photo sensitive blue pencil...and of course, that, when I scanned... mostly disappeared...
stupid.
grrrr..
