I quite understand if you want to delay buying any of my comics, till your wife is onboard with more comics-spending. I wouldn't want you to be a victim of spouse-icide on my account. Clio>> Thanks. I have been meaning to try something like this for a while... I did some combinations of cartoony line-art and photo textures years ago, before I knew photoshop... (old school with glue and scissors) and liked how those came out... this way is a lot more flexible (but still time consuming). I like how <a href="http://www.shomurase.com" rel="nofollow">Sho Murase</a> (uses textile patterns in her work) and <a href="http://www.denis-goulet.com" rel="nofollow">Denis Goulet</a> (painterly textures) and <a href="http://homepage.mac.com/agreda/iblog/" rel="nofollow">Jose Luis Agreda</a> get that neato blend of texture AND graphic designy shapes... they have all inspired me too.

I just stumbled across your blog, and it looks great. Your comics look really nice too. I think I'm going to order some in the near future. (I have a couple things on order right now, so if I get them now, my wife will kill me.) But I will soon. I'm publishing <a href="http://www.possumpress.com" title="(the Possum)" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">my own comic</a> right now as well , and it was interesting to read some of your interview, and see the similarities in getting it off of the ground. I love the elephant paintings as well. Hi Jamie! I just stumbled across your blog, and it looks great. Your comics look really nice too. I think I’m going to order some in the near future.

At times I thought the HUGE reaction of the elephant was funnier when contrasted with a tiny zap, and then the next minute I thought a big, bold, bright ZAP was the way to go... I was really going back and forward on that silly little detail while making this pic... until I decided to move on to the next one. It's amazing, the things that I can get hung up on!

Yeah the zap can be punched a bit otherwise..it's great! Love the angularity of the elephant--especially in contrast to the soft lines of the earlier painting. Beautiful!
