The Boston Phoenix recently underwent a re-design----clean, bold lines from now on with flat color. No more scratchy lines, textures, or visible brushstrokes in the art. Seeing as how I murdered my eyesight from 6th grade to senior year of college doing clean, insanely detailed black and white work, just taking on this Halloween comic assignment was terrifying! I'm glad they offered me this 4 -panel comic, though I really miss doing those large, full-color painted covers from the late 90s/ early 2000s:

1998 cover (New England Press Association Award-Winner)"Monster Dance", 11" x 14", $300:



1998 spot illos:





1999 Cover "The Road to Blair", 11" x 14", sold:



2001 Cover "Rise and Shine", 6.5" x 10", $300:



2002 Cover "Transylvanian Torch Singer", 10.75" x 14.5", sold:



and a full-page comic version of the "Flirting with Death" Black Cat Burlesque act I perform with Miss Firecracker, printed in the Phoenix's 2004 Halloween edition is here
