Day 314: Having just learned what a musk ox looks like yesterday, I've made some executive decisions on animal classification
4-panel comic drawn in pen with crosshatch shading. The top two panels are on the same row, and panels 3 and 4 are horizontal in shape and are stacked vertically below panels 1 and 2. The top caption above the whole comic says "Good morning, I've made some decisions for the scientific community:" Panel 1 has a caption that stretches across the top of the page and says "I see the terms 'buffalo' & 'bison' used interchangeably... this is how the bison (buffalo) in Minneopa State Park look:" Just below this caption is a drawing of an American Bison, with a big ol' head, triangle body and little horns. Captions in cursive surround the drawing, saying "big ol' hump. Look at this guy! the platonic ideal of a buffalo." Panel 2 has a caption saying "And this is a water 'buffalo'." In the panel is a drawing of a water buffalo, which looks more like a normal cow but with droopy ears and big horns that curve upward. The cursive captions around it say "basically no hump. looks like an ox. cow body and head." Panel 3 has a caption saying "Meanwhile, the musk 'ox' looks like a buffalo. This is madness." In the panel is a drawing of a musk ox, which looks essentially like a longhair version of the American bison from panel 1 but with big horns that start at the center of its head and curve out in a 'W' shape. Cursive captions say "Big ol' hump, bison body. Not a single neck to be seen on this thing." Panel 3 shows me looking sleep-deprived and holding a lit cigarette like Charlie Day in the "pepe silvia" episode of Always Sunny; I'm gesturing at a drawing of a musk (ox) buffalo and water (buffalo) ox, and my speech bubbles encroach over previous panels, saying "So I say, if they have this big hump up here, like you rearranged a camel, it's a buffalo. And if it looks like a cow, but more threatening, it's an ox. I will not be taking any questions at this time." Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann) and today's date (11-10-2025)

I've been reorganizing my studio all day and made my self a "good job!" martini (so I am a little drunk), but you can bet your ass I still slid into the Amy Klobuchar's voicemail & asked her NOT to cave to republicans and reopen the government w/o funding for the ACA.

Call your dem senator🍸
gregpak.net Greg Pak @gregpak.net · 1d
Okay, Ezra is confirming that he's hearing D senators are actually plotting to cave to Trump and end the shutdown WITHOUT any extension of the ACA, just a promise of a vote later down the line.

Call your senators, friends, NOW, and tell them NO DEAL without ACA funding!

Day 313: Continuing with my mini series of drawing unfamiliar animals until the government stops me!
2-panel comic drawn with sable brush and india ink with inkwash shading. The panels are stacked vertically and equal in size. Panel 1 starts with a caption: "Next animal I know nothing about: the noble Musk Ox. I feel like this will be another ibex situation... Time to draw it with no reference:" Beneath the caption is an ink drawing of what mostly looks like a normal bull, with large horns that go directly out to the sides and curve slightly upward, and big droopy ears that hang below. The face looks like a Holstein cow's face (so cute), and it has standard bull legs (kind of stocky with cloven hooves) and a swishy cow tail. Captions written in cursive surround the drawing: "Does it have some sort of stink sack?" is positioned just above the bull/cow/ox's hump above the shoulders. Another caption says "beautiful cow face", surrounded with little sparkles, and one more caption in the corner just says "Just a real thick boy" Panel 2 starts with the caption "and now WITH reference:" and has a detailed drawing of an actual musk ox. It's shaped similarly to the first bull, but is covered with long hair, has short, upright, triangle-shaped cow ears, and horns that start at the top-center of its head and curve out and downward like a giant handlebar mustache. The cursive captions around it say "mustache on head!!" "(omg) It's another muppet," a set of curved brackets below the ox and a caption saying "the SHAPE of him," and one more caption in the bottom corner saying "I was so right about the beautiful cow face." Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (11-9-2025) and the time I spent drawing this (50 minutes)

Day 312: Drawing another animal without seeing it first, featuring the Hellbender
2-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading; the panels are stacked vertically and separated by one diagonal border. Panel 1 starts with a caption that says "Um, okay... today's animal that I don't know very well was suggested by a reader and chosen by the dice gods: The Hellbender" Beneath that caption is a d20 dice bouncing twice and landing on a "15," next to a drawing of the head of Bender from Futurama and a cursive note that says "Not this one. Drew him w/o reference, tho!)" Another caption says "Literally no clue what this one could be, so I'll draw it with no reference:" Beneath that is an ink drawing of a winding worm-type creature with tendrils at both ends, and the large end is filled with rows of jagged teeth like some sort of eldritch horror. The cursive captions around the drawing say "Gross? Got 2 butts? I'm thinking it's some sort of deep sea mollusk? Maybe??" Panel 2 starts with another caption box saying "And now with reference:" and below that is an ink drawing of a long, plain-looking salamander with a tail that looks like a tadpole tail, 4 stumpy legs resembling that of a small alligator, and a round head with tiny eyes with its mouth open, revealing a non-threatening, toothless mouth. The cursive captions around the animal say "Alright, so it's a darling little salamander. So wet. Profoundly wet. Part catfish, part muppet. I love him."

Post you from a different era.

I've literally never looked cooler than when this picture was shot in the unfinished upstairs of a pub in Saint Peter just before a Rocky Horror/Meatloaf themed show back in 2019.
Sun-soaked photo of me, a tall white lady with voluminous curly hair and fake eyelashes, wearing black pants, suspenders and a white dress shirt and drinking beer out of a tall glass. I'm standing in a storage room filled with a cabinet, random buckets of paint and, inexplicably, a (laundry) washing machine

Day 311: Ope, I'm gonna be drawing animals badly for the foreseeable future (sorry in advance)
Keep the suggestions coming in the comments!
2-panel comic drawn with india ink and sable brush with inkwash shading; the panels are stacked vertically and both show a "death ball sponge," first drawn without reference and then drawn with reference. Panel 1 has a caption saying "Following up from yesterday's comic -- I rolled a dice & landed on a new animal I'm unfamiliar with (from a list of suggestions from readers) and today I'm drawing a DEATH BALL SPONGE" without reference:" In the panel is a drawing of what I imagined a death ball sponge to look like: a round, lumpy ball covered in unevenly placed holes and black spikes, nestled on the suggested setting of the ocean floor. Little notes surround the drawing, written in cursive, and say "Gonna go pretty literal... maybe some vents [two arrows point at the side of the sponge ball] (does it breathe through its ass?) It's gotta have some pointy parts, yeah? Did I just draw a sea urchin?" Panel 2 starts with the caption, "And now, with reference:" and shows a crazy sci-fi creature that starts as a tripod of thin tentacle-looking things at the base, next to a thicker "trunk" that grows up into a tree-like structure of semi-translucent balls on thin appendages. There are also thin little things that resemble octopus tentacles coming out of the center of the "treetop" structure. It looks crazy. My cursive captions read as thus: "EXCUSE ME?! what the fuck-- ...this design is doing too much. (I do love it) Apparently it's carnivorous. Hey, marine biologists, why are we calling this a sponge?" Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (11-7-2025) and the time i spent drawing this (50 minutes)

Day 310: Drawing animals I've never seen in person like a 400CE monk

If there's an object or living thing you think I don't know much about, and you'd like to see me draw it very badly and then kind of okay, sound off in the comments baby
2-panel comic drawn in pen with minimal inkwash shading; the panels are stacked vertically and equal in size. Panel 1 starts with a caption that says "Drawing with my non-dominant hand the other day got me thinking about other fun (interesting?) ways to restrict the drawing process, like: drawing something I'm not super familiar with, w/o using a reference. An Ibex!" Beneath that caption is a drawing of what mostly resembles a fawn but with tall, straight, spindly antlers and black spots on its back. Little notes in cursive surround the animal and say "spots? Mountain terrain? Rocks? (A deer, but, kind of cunty?)" Panel 2 shows a drawing that actually referenced an Ibex, which basically just looks like a regular ram with long horns that arch back gracefully away from the head. The captions say "And then drawing it again *with* reference. Oh wow... I was way off. I was right about the rocks tho. No spots. (still pretty cunty)" Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (11-6-2025) and the time I spent drawing this (40 minutes)

Day 309: Are ted talks still a thing? Welcome to my ted talk.
Single-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading. The panel is vertical in shape, and at the top is a drawing of a window seat for cats that is basically a PVC pipe frame held to a window with 4 suction cups: 2 on one side of the frame and 2 extended out with suspension wires to stabilize the bed against the window. The first caption says "We got a new little window seat for the cats, so they can stare at birds 3 inches closer than usual. Margo loves it, but sometimes it slips when she climbs onto it." Beneath this is a large cartoon arrow pointing down at my longhair cat Margo who is looking angrily at me while sitting in her now-slanted window seat that's angled to one side and losing its grip on the window. Next to her, I'm standing in a bland blazer, wearing a headset mic and holding a lecturer's stick thing, and saying "Is it user error? The dry autumn air making it hard for the suction cups to adhere to the glass? Or is Margo simply the fattest little baby in town? In this presentation, I will" and the last speech bubble runs off the panel edge as if I'm trailing off.

Day 308: It's choir season, babyyyyyyy!
2-panel comic drawn with sable brush and india ink with minimal inkwash shading; the panels are placed horizontally on the same row, and the top caption says "When you've learned classical music in the same 4 Latin-based languages for years, you get pretty good at pronunciation without knowing any useful vocab..." Panel 1 shows me, a white lady with round glasses and long, dark, wavy hair, wearing a black sweater, holding a cup of coffee and shrugging while looking off-panel absent-mindedly. My speech bubble says "Well, you know what they say, [flawless French sentence with no context]" Panel 2 shows me again, still holding my coffee, but my head is now considerably smaller and my features are simplified, while my glasses now look huge on my dumb little head. There's a speech bubble coming from off-panel that says "[actually speaking French]" to which I am responding, "kwah?" (a phonetic spelling of the French word "quoi?" meaning "what?"). The speech bubble from off-panel continues with the French sentence, "Oh non... c'est une idiote." (which translates to "Oh no, she's an idiot" in English).

Day 307: Hey, you know what? Shoulda been crab 🤷‍♀️🦀
Single-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading. Unboxed captions in the panel say "Talking with a friend about how our brains get anxious over nothing, while also constantly taking in an onslaught of information and horrors beyond our control." Below that caption are two text-chat-style speech bubbles pointing off-screen; the first says "we shoulda just been crabs, man." and the second responds, "yeah, we shoulda been crabs" Beneath the free-floating chat bubbles is a drawing of myself as a hermit crab (I still have my round glasses and long curly hair poking out of my home, which is a discarded Pamplemousse La Croix can), and my friend as a Tasmanian giant crab but with a full beard and square glasses; my friend is grabbing onto a d6 die with his giant claw, and a d4 adn d20 sit in front of us in the sand.

Single-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading; the panel shows a somewhat sloppy drawing of my cats sitting at the edge of my drafting desk and looking out the window; my longhair cat Margo is looking angrily at my shorthair cat Egg Noodle, who is gently wapping her in the face with his very long tail. The captions in the comic say "My dominant hand is doing that thing where my knuckles swell and my fingers won't close properly. (We're transitioning into colder weather, and I was built wrong) so I'm drawing with my left hand today."

New art scam alert, lol.

The solicitation: My "work they enjoyed":
An email I received from a scammer that reads "Hello, I came across your portfolio on Artstation and enjoyed your work and use of color. I am an academic event organizer looking for an illustrator to create illustrations to be used at a workshop about pandemic preparedness. I will need these illustrations towards the middle of December. I would love to know when you are available and interested in this project so I can share with you what needs to be illustrated and the budgeted prices. Thank you for your time! Regards, [bland midwestern man name that isn't actually theirs]" A screenshot of my Artstation portfolio, which is *exclusively* reposts of the "NO TO AI GENERATED IMAGES" image that a bunch of artists (including myself) flooded the site with a few months ago, in protest.

3-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading; the panels are stacked vertically and all depict Ostrich-me wearing/using boxing gloves in different ways, next to a boxing dummy. Panel 1 has an empty box in the top left corner, and shows Ostrich me waving boxing gloves in the air at the ends of her stupid wings. A little "grackle" SFX is coming from her beak. Panel 2 has an empty box in the top left corner, and shows Ostrich me wearing the boxing gloves on her nasty bird feet and punching the boxing dummy while screaming "GRAGGH!!!" Panel 3 has a check-off box in the top left corner, and shows Ostrich me engulfing the head of the boxing dummy in her massive open beak, after having discarded the boxing gloves on the ground.

3-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading; the panels are stacked vertically with minimal overlap from a tall grandfather clock that extends from the bottom of panel 3 up into the bottom right corner of panel 1. Panel 1 shows a scarecrow in the foreground, standing in a field with a shadowy cabin in the background and a crescent moon in the night sky. The caption says "It's October 31st, the culminating end of the spooky halloween month; spookier still is the approach..." Panel 2 is closer on the shadowy cabin, with a caption continuing, "...of daylight savings time." Panel 3 shows the interior of the cabin, with me sitting silhouetted at a desk next to a window through which lightning is flashing; also in the foreground of this panel is the aforementioned grandfather clock. The captions in this panel say "Just kidding. I actually really like daylight savings time." Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann) and today's date (10-31-2025)

As a special treat for Halloween tomorrow, I'm uploading all 10 parts of my "Dressed Up Comics" mini-series from earlier this month -- all in sequence and higher res scans, instead of just snapping a picture like usual 👻 🎃

Up first: Jim Davis, Gary Larson, Bill Watterson, E.C. Segar
A single-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading: the comic features me (a white lady with long, dark, wavy hair and round glasses) and my two cats, all drawn in the cartooning style of Jim Davis, author and artist of the Garfield comic. I am drawn similarly to the character "Liz," with a round, bulbous head and egg-shaped eyes, and I'm holding my longhair cat Margo who is drawn very similarly to the character Nermal, and she's looking up at me with angry eyes. Next to us, standing on my closed sketchbook is my shorthair cat Egg Noodle, who is drawn like Garfield himself and doing that pose where his head is tilted all the way back with one hand in the air and the other grabbing Margo's tail. There are little hearts floating next to his head, and since he already looks quite a lot like Garfield, he's got a legible name tag hanging from his collar that says "EGG NOODLE." The caption in the comic is a hand-drawn variation of the "Copper Black" font (the font that Garfield's title is often presented in), and says "Dressing my comic up as other comics." Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (10-1-2025) and the time I spent drawing this (50 minutes) Single-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash, drawn in the style of The Far Side Gallery by Gary Larson. The caption above the comic says "Dressing my comic up as other comics: Pt. 2" In the comic, my spouse and I stand in our home and look out a side window which has absolutely giant acorn squash leaves pressing up against the glass. My shorthair tabby cat Egg Noodle sits on our piano with his extraordinarily long tail winding down over the bench, staring out the window with bulbous eyes, and in the foreground my longhair cat Margo sits calmly on our round table. There is a Far-Side-Gallery-style caption just below the panel flanked by quotation marks, which says "Perhaps it was a mistake to neglect the vegetable garden during radioactive rain season." Beneath that Larson-esque caption is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (10-2-2025) and the time I spent drawing this (50 minutes) Single panel comic drawn in pen in the style of Bill Watterson, author of Calvin and Hobbes, and continuing on from yesterday's comic about giant vines and leaves pressing up against the window of my house. The top caption on the comic says "Dressing my comic up as other comics: Pt. 3" In the comic, my spouse and I are drawn like Calvin and Hobbes (my spouse looks like Hobbes, but with square glasses and cheetah spots instead of tiger stripes, and I am drawn as Calvin but with round glasses and long, dark, wavy hair. I'm gesturing happily at he center of the panel and saying "Woah-- we got a ton of acorn squash from the radioactive vine!" James/Hobbes ("Jobbes") is scratching their head and looking at the acorn squashes, some of which are arranged in monstrous "snowman" builds, similar to many of the Calvin and Hobbes comics do with snowmen, and saying "This seems... ominous." Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (10-3-2025) and the time I spent drawing this (50 minutes) A 2-panel comic drawn in pen in the style of E.C. Segar's Popeye cartoons. The top caption says "I yam dressin' my comic up as other comics! (Pt. 4)" Panel 1 shows me (drawn like Popeye the Sailor but with long, wavy black hair) being swatted by a long, tendril coming from a sentient acorn squash vine with a swift "shooop!" SFX, stars flying outward and my glasses popping upward off my head. Beside me is my spouse (a tall person with curly dark hair and square glasses) drawn like Olive Oyl and clasping their hands together with surprise. In panel 2, I'm running away from the vines and carrying my spouse, while saying "Better get back in da house before we gets exercuted," which is a direct reference to the original Popeye comic panel described in the first comment on this post. Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (10-4-2025) and the time I spent drawing this (50 minutes)

Day 303: Come here Jerry, I just wanna talk
3-panel comic drawn in pen with minimal inkwash shading. Th epanels are equal in size and all placed horizontally on the same row. Panel 1 shows me sitting at my drafting desk looking mildly annoyed while trying to focus on my work, while a long "zhuuu" SFX streaming behind me. The caption says "Why in god's name is my neighbor" Panel 2 is closer on me, with my face contorted in an angrier expression as the sound effects behind me continue and get bigger in the panel; the caption continues from last panel: "using a leaf blower right outside my window" Panel 3's caption continues, "at 8:30 in the morning" and in the panel my face is closer than ever, and my enraged expression is drawn purely in crosshatch lines as the rest of the panel is engulfed in the loud leafblower SFX: "ZZZZHHHUUUUUUU" Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (10-30-2025) and the time I spent drawing this (50 minutes)

Day 302: Supernaturally insensitive
2-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading. The panels are stacked vertically. Panel 1 shows the interior of a house-museum built in 1881 with an old 20's style vent, furniture, and a large built-in desk in the next room where I am going through some mail. A spooky shadow is falling on one of the walls from something off-panel. The captions say "For my dayjob, I work alone in one of the oldest buildings in the oldest part of the city. You'd think I'd encounter lots of ghosts, but I have a very special set of skills." Panel 2 shows me working on my laptop, surrounded by an Edwardian ghost woman with a Gibson Girl hairdo and hollow eye sockets, a bald ghoul man with a skeleton hand and high-collared jacket, and a sad Victorian ghost child with white eyes wearing a 'Newsies' cap. The ghost lady is looking at me, happily working at my computer and saying "So, she can't perceive us at all?" The ghoul man is pointing at my head and saying "Nope. It's just Spongebob quotes in there." The sad Victorian child is saying "Why does she keep typing "calculator" in the search engine?" which is a good question, since there is a physical calculator sitting on the next next to my computer. Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann) and today's date (10-29-2025)

Day 301: "You were almost a Jill sandwich!!1!"
3-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading; the top caption says "Horror Media I Love (even though I'm a huge wiener: Resident Evil" Panel 1 is large and shows one of the Resident Evil franchise protagonists, Jill Valentine, dressed in her S.T.A.R.S. uniform from the first game and backed against a wall in the Spencer mansion, looking to one side of the panel while a zombie approaches around a corner on the other side of the panel. The captions say "I watched my brother play the first game when I was about 7. It had weird early Playstation sound effects, like this squishing sound you'd hear whenever a zombie was off-screen." There are several SFX that say "QUIH-- QUIH-- QUIH--" toward the bottom of the panel, near the zombie's decaying feet. Panel 2 is a downward view of kid me lying awake in the dark, listening to more of those "QUIH" SFX and looking frightened with a thought bubble that says "oh my god, this is it for me." The caption says "One night I woke up to that exact squishing sound..." Panel 3 shows a shorthair cat licking a frosty windowpane, accompanied by those same "QUIH" SFX, and a caption that says "...which turned out to be our cat licking frost off the inside of my window." Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann) and today's date (10-28-2025)

Day 300: Màrgö hǎs tō dø ẽâvrythĭng årōųnd hɛrě.
2-panel comic drawn in pen with crosshatch shading; The panels are placed on the same row horizontally and separated with a diagonal border. Panel 1 shows me crouched down with my arms extended, next to two overnight bags sitting on the floor. My speech bubble says "I'm home, babies! C'mere, my little squish!" My longhair cat Margo is sitting on a step in the entryway and scowling at me, while my shorthair cat Egg Noodle cowers on the step behind her. Margo's scraggly speech bubble is written in lowercase letters with unnecessary accents over all the vowels (as is her way), and says "the laedy STINKS of monsters." There is a small inset bubble "panel" extending from the stink lines coming from my duffle bag, and it features cute drawings of the two shiba inu dogs I spent the weekend with at my friend's house. Panel 2 shows Margo frantically smushing her body against my luggage with an angry expression on her face; her scraggly speech bubbles say "will taek Margo sew long to cover the stink. nobody haelps Margo in this cursed hause."

Single panel comic drawn in pen with crosshatch shading; in the panel I'm sitting at a table with a coffee mug that has a Sagittarius symbol on it (to match the Aries mug I have in Minnesota); I'm drawing in my sketchbook and looking over at two black shiba inu dogs. There's a caption that says "Visiting my friend out of state," and one of the dogs has a single speech bubble that says "Who is lady? Hello strange lady."
