Is it done yet? 👀 Heads up y'all, you might see some different art on here going forward. Not all the time and not all at once, but in 2026 I really want to focus on personal pieces. This is one of them. Lemme know if you love it or hate it. 🌻 (PS It doesn't matter bc I'm just going to do what I want, k bye! 😌)

New retail location unlocked!! 🗝️ I'm so excited to share that I have a space with @junkymonkeync and I couldn't be more proud. 🥹🤓 This space is a little different from everything else I've done. I'm finally able to bring in other local comics, more of which are coming soon, 🤓 and the space will allow me to sell things I create and things I loved and wish to part with. 📚 I even decided to share a little with @geekade_evan 🤣 for once. You'll be able to buy: - local comics - my prints - my journals and sketchbooks - my tote bags - prints and art by other artists we love - gently used books - items from our personal collection (toys, posters, etc.) - more coming soon! The space will evolve as we do. 🥰 Plus, the other vendors here are absolutely amazing! 🎂 Soft re-opening August 1, from 10-6 🥳 Grand re-opening is August 2, from 10-6 with door prizes and a visit from 98.7 during the afternoon! (2-4) 📍Location: 68 Darlington Ave, Wilmington, NC #smallbusiness #wilmingtonnc

This Week on Comic Underground The walls keep changing. More art. More movement. More nights where you don’t really know what’s coming. 🔥🔥🔥Monday | 8–11PM EST @Travel_PT_Collection Matt opens the week with a wall built for digging. Strong books, deep pulls, and the kind of inventory that rewards people paying attention. 🔥🔥🔥Tuesday | 8-9PM EST Split Panels🎨 @AlleewayArtz vs @AFernot Round three. Two artists. One subject: SUPER GIRL. Different styles, different instincts, different approaches unfolding live on screen at the same time. Part sketch session. Part showdown. 🔥🔥🔥Wednesday Doubleheader 7–8:30PM EST @_GoldStandardCollectibles GoldStandard sets the tone. Slabs, raws, and carefully built walls with zero wasted space. Always deliberate. Always strong. 8:30–11PM EST @Missoula_Comics Missoula brings personality with the books. Collector energy, fun interaction, and a room that feels alive from the minute the show starts. 🔥🔥🔥Thursday Doubleheader 7–8:30PM EST @ComicAttics A fast-moving pop-up with no time to waste. These shorter windows always move differently—and usually disappear just as quickly. 8:30–11:30PM EST @WhiteOakComics WhiteOak closes the week with depth. Collector books, strong walls, and a show that keeps revealing more the longer you stay in the room. Six shows. More momentum. Closer to Anti-Con.

I'd say the battle jacket was a success. 😌 I cannot express how much joy I experienced at the encore Launch Party getting to talk to people about what they loved, the patches they created, and what made them support @encoreilm I love this town. These people. This nonprofit. You all made this night one I never want to forget. Pair that with incredible friends, dedicated volunteers, badass music by @themidatlantic band (sorry I didn't get to film you, but it sounded so good from where I was working!), and the vibes at @theeaglesdare and it was one hell of an experience. 🤘

🙃I don't know if this is crazy, but I created an interactive art piece for the community to make a battle jacket! I'm going to be at the encore Launch Party tomorrow night at The Eagle's Dare, and I'd love to see you there! Will you come create with me? 🗓 Date: April 30, 2026 ⌚Time: 7-10pm 📍Location: The Eagle's Dare 🌟100% of proceeds will support encore and their future publications. 🫶Fun fact: Battle jackets & vests were first adapted from WWII Army Air Corps flight jackets, then to motorcycle groups, and eventually, to punks and metalheads of the 1970's and 80's. For punks, battle jackets are typically adorned with patches reflecting the interests or subculture of the wearer, especially when related to bands. As part of the encore movement, we're decorating our own battle jackets to show people more of what we love and care about!

I only managed to get one photo yesterday, but it's one I cherish. What a great event! Despite the rain trying to ruin our fun, there was a great turnout and outstanding attire. I'd say it was my favorite kind of weird. See y'all at the next one! Thank you @hiwirebrewing_wilm for being such wonderful hosts and to @citygypsyboutique for creating such a fun show. I know it's hard when the weather works against us, but we still had the best time!

Current WIP pieces for Make Wilmington Weird Ren Fest tomorrow! Having a hand injury has stalled a lot of creation, but these hurt less and I'm having so much fun! I know it's not my usual but I hope you enjoy them anyway. 🥰🦈💕

I meant to put this up on Earth Day, but I'm never on time for trends, so here we are! I made this last year as an homage to The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. It's my favorite kids book of all time, which probably says a lot about me. But I loved the tree so much and kind of hated the boy for not appreciating her. Fun fact, when I was a kid, even if the tree needed to be cut, I would cry any time my dad took a tree down in our yard. Anyway, this painting is because I wish people would teach their children to love the trees and care for them the way they care for us. Made with the pages of a 100 year old book, glue, and acrylic paint. And a whole lot of love. IDK. Maybe I'm weird. I'll just go outside and hug a tree. 😘 #earthday #mixedmediaarts #trees

🔥 New Character Art!🔥It’s finally here! Introducing the gorgeous character art for Revenge and Ruin, created by the incredibly talented @afernot . (Yes, there’s a NSFW version of this too…and yes, I’m having swag printed with both versions!) I adore everything about this so much. The tension between Niko and Katerina…the deep blue sky, complete with Firebird constellation…her flames and his shadows…the sparks on the water…yep, consider me obsessed. For those of you who are new to my world, Revenge and Ruin is the second book in my Slavic dark romantasy trilogy. I’m not going to put the blurb here, because *spoilers* for book 1, but just imagine: Their bond is supposed to be purely professional… …and instead they fall for each other & their love unleashes a world-destroying Darkness. Think: 🔥Harm her, and he’ll ruin you 🔥Hot demons with attitudes 🔥Only one cottage 🔥Forbidden love 🔥He tends her wounds 🔥Sassy, powerful FMC 🔥SO MUCH morally grey! 🔥They accept each other as they are—even the broken parts 🔥Elemental magic 🔥Shapeshifters 🔥Soul-bond tattooed on his skin 🔥Gender-flipped Hades/Persephone retelling @afernot managed to capture the vibe of all of this perfectly in a single image, and I’m busy fangirling away. What do y’all think?! #characterart #characterartwork #romantasyreads #revengeandruin #forbiddenlove
