Time for my annual reminder to cartoonists that WHAT you choose to draw in a panel is often far more important than how *well* it’s drawn.

Draw the Noun.
Draw the Verb.

Easy on the Adjectives…

Tomorrow I launch "Welcome to Standalone" on my Substack: A webcomic about student life in the 90s, with audience participation. I end each chapter with a call for votes on how the story should go. The first vote was for autobiographical or fiction. Autobiography it is https://loobylu.substack.com

Hey art nerds - hot tip: these classic stablio highlighters are so good to colour with, and way cheaper than copic etc. They come in this full rainbow of colours now. Great for colour fields and palette experiments.

People watching, Montréal, 03.21.23:
1. Downtown ski bunny fresh from the slopes of Mount Royal
2. Canadian plaid and beard guy
3. Celebrating the “warm” day
4. Tripping tourists lining up for smoked meat sandwiches
5. Fashion students: she wore a tiny, furry hat, he wore disdain and pink boots

So glad to be able to post about my Substack again! Last month I published a webcomic for my subscribers about trying to figure out what to wear to an office job after years of freelancing.

Hey! New start. Hello!
I’ve just finished reading this graphic novel by Isabel Greenberg about the juvenilia of the Brontës… highly recommended.
