Sam the Dog

This is Sammy T. Dogg.

As his owner pointed out, he's wearing cotton. But everyone else should avoid wearing cotton for winter outdoor activities.

Arisia photos and new comic

Photos from Arisia!


Me, standing next to my art panel. The original watercolor of the red bird was bought by Jim Belfiore, who was also paneling next to me.



I also sold a few of the prints. (The larger watercolor was not for sale.) For the most part, I was at my table in the artist and authors alley:





I debuted a new minicomic, "The Wolf and the Sun", which I drew last October.

Rick from Dandelion Studios was kind enough to review the book:

Here's also a review for a goofy jam comic Julia and I made: http://dailycomicreview.blogspot.com/2011/01/bonus-review-how-trendy-dog-went-to.html

And I made a flyer for the show.


I have also been hiking and cross-country skiing recently.

Happy New Year! and shows and drumming

Happy New Year!

So I will be tabling and showing things at Arisia next week (Jan 14-17).


At the Art Show, I will be displaying "Mark and the Gillys book 1" cover (see here when I displayed it at the Marblehead Museum) and probably some small watercolors for sale. (I may update this.)

At the Artists and Authors Alley, I will be tabling on Friday (3pm-8pm) and Sunday (10am-8pm), selling comics.



Unrelated to anything, here is a photo of my cousin drumming.

Lunar Eclipse tonight!

There is a lunar eclipse tonight! It will be visible from all of North America, and part of will be visible from South America, Asia, west Europe, west Africa, NZ and Australia. On the US east coast, it will peak at 3:17am apparently.

There is also a meteor shower -- the Ursids, which will appear to fan out from the Little Bear constellation, according to the news.

It is also winter solstice for the northern hemisphere.

Multiplying post-docs

Some photos from work.

Where am I showing up in the next month or two

My laptop is being repaired, so blog updates are a little tricky.

Update on where you can see me and my comics in Boston:
* Last Thursday, I was at MIT's winter craft Fair, selling minicomics.
* I wasn't at Boston Bizarre Bazaar, but I had a few books at a table there.
* I think I will be around Arisia and Boskone this January and February.
