Brainfag 4

Brainfag 4

A potent ingredient in Brainfag Take-Over-The-World Cake. Tuck has it rough. Every time he gets back on his feet, he's suddenly & inexplicably lost in a inky black abyss. The wily octopus awaits around every corner and sexy spiderwomen beg him to put down his walking stick and roll in the hay. Resist, Tuck!

 
Brainfag 3

Brainfag 3

Recently split from a 3 year relationship with excessive energy from my simmering storehouse of unprocessed emotional fodder, I drew a series of tragic accounts of old girlfriends. This massive 52 pg issue is chock-full of crudely drawn sex and nudity, including Nate wandering about led by his incessant, mindless erection.

I pencilled, inked & watercolored this children's book for my nephew, Aaron, in 18 hours. I scanned the b&w pages before coloring and made minis (what's offered for sale), then colored and scanned the finished book, which you can view online.
