I’ll be at the Sakura Matsuri at Brooklyn Botanic Garden ( 1000 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, NY ) on May 2-3 signing books at the Manga & Anime Artist Alley! This is happening rain or shine and will be an amazing event! Check out the special postcard I designed for the occasion!

The latest issue of celebrated literary zine, Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet, is now available including a comic by me! Click to order!

Check out my latest comic for gURL.com! It’s about my cat’s struggle with diabetes. Don’t worry she is doing OK now!

My cat Slinky had a small cyst removed and came home from the vet in a shirt! She doesn’t seem to mind it at all, this may be the start of a new fashion phase for her…

Happy New Year!

Kick it off by checking out my lucky cat paintings at the Maneki Neko Art Show at:
Showroom NYC
117 2nd Ave 2nd floor
corner of 7th street, NYC

It runs just from January 5-6 12-8 PM. Don’t miss it!

This is a cool site about cats with jobs (at bodegas, bookstores, etc.). Very cute!

LCRW is a fiction zine edited by Kelly Link & Gavin J. Grant of the venerable Small Beer Press and I am very pleased to be a part of it! I did a one page comic from the world of Dolltopia. Here is a snippet. You can order it at this link.

Here’s a shot of the 2nd maneki neko painting I did for the upcoming show at The showroom in NYC. The show will be in January, I’ll be posting details as we get closer.

Here’s a shot of both paintings on my art table.

I’ve been feverishly working away on Dolltopia and am making great progress. Dolltopia 2 will be ready for MOCCA 2008 (and possibly Dolltopia 3)! Here is one of my fave panels (before the toning).

Presenting my first painting in years! It will be part of an art show opening in January at The Showroom. The theme is Maneki Neko (Japanese Lucky Cats) so I thought it was perfect that I was invited to take part in this show. I love Maneki Neko and have a few of them in my room. I haven’t painted in a long while and it was fun (and a little intimidating) to get back into. I have plans to get more paintings happening, especially some blow-ups and take-offs on my comic panels that I particularly like.
