In the build-up to a bumper deadline December, it’s been all hands on deck at Archcomix HQ, as the inked bristol slowly piles up on my desk. So as a taster to hold you over until next month when I can reveal what I’ve been up to, here’s a pencil (run through an iphone filter) of John Giles, the (anti)hero of my Alcatraz comic for the National Parks Conservancy Trust. See the Alcatraz page for more details. If you’re interested in how the pencils turn miraculously into inks, then check out my new time-lapse video on you tube by scrolling down (new users to the site: news is below the “fold”, under this here header announcement, and free comics are accessible through the drop-down menus above and via the buttons in the sidebar to the right).
I’ve also added some recent sketches to my flickr stream – check them out and follow my photostream here. And just in time for the festive season, check out my prints section and order some original artwork for the art lover/comic artist/discerning aesthete in your life – all come signed (with dedications optional).
Today’s stories: a new page to the site to chronicle my upcoming Knight Journalism Fellowship at Stanford, featuring a CGI Polish history trailer and a plan to resurrect editorial cartoons for the 21st century. As I get back into drawing after a mini hiatus spent focused on stopmotion, I’ve cracked the spine on a new sketchbook and will be posting the results (however hit or miss) to my flickr account. If you’re on flickr, then add me as a contact. If you’re not, and can’t bring yourself to click that link, then scrolling down the right hand sidebar is enough to give you a thumbnailed idea of what my scrawls look like. To watch the fruit of my claymation labours, then check out my youtube channel.
New here? Go to the start of the wordless comic above here. You can order a copy of my latest comic on human trafficking here – now at 14% of our total goal, so dig deep in those pockets and help us raise awareness of the plight of human trafficking victims. Thanks to those who already have.
