Reintroducing myself for new followers!

I'm an educational #psychologist who is also an artist! I examine education through Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory.

I also deeply care about #politics & #history which I explore through my #webcomics, Without Moonlight & Verdant! More on the ALT!
Cover of the webcomic Without Moonlight. A curly haired, one-eyed boy with scars on his face is trying to evade searchlights. The nazi flag is flying at the Acropolis, rather than the Greek one. WM is a war drama set in WW2 Nazi-occupied Greece. Fotis and his friends struggle to survive the famine of Athens when they suddenly are thrust into protecting a microfilm that could make or break that most important stand the fledgling Greek Resistance is about to make. Cover for the webcomic Verdant. A red-haired knight is floating in the waters of a swamp forest, unconscious. Vines are creeping towards him from what looks to be a submerged witch. Verdant is a dark fantasy and political drama/adventure. Etan, a kome (knight) of the Despotate, genuinely believes that witches are the enemy, heretics that are insolent to the gods and threaten nature and the world with annihilation. When he realizes that is not the case, he suddenly has to protect himself and others from those forces that are the real threat.

Don't mention NSFW and don't mention the word commission as well, to be safe.

Sharing to help many. Keep going guys and be careful.

Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

Here, from my webcomic Verdant- Etan on a hopeless mission against a fire lava demon.

Read Verdant here: www.theduckwebcomics.com/Verdant
From the webcomic Verdant: A ginger knight, wearing chainmail and a surcoat of blue,with a long single braid is bursting through a magic force field, sword swinging, as he's glowing green with his own magic. With his sword swing he's cutting through tendrils of lava that look to be alive. In the background, the source of the force field, a corvid-man witch flowing in the air with his wings spread and glowing, is casting so powerfully he's almost invisible in the light emanating. The knight is saying, with a challenging grin "Hey, ya glorified kindle-starter! Doncha tell me... ya really think yer unmatched?"

#comics #short #complete #surreal
Cover for the webcomic Distance and Time by VegaX, art by VegaX! The image is a composite of different elements from the story. The main figure is a young looking man carrying a suitcase and a backback that looks to be a carrier for a skeletal creature. One skeletal arm is raised through the slits at the backpack's sides. The shadow of a man back to back with the younger one, and the partially hidden face of a woman complete the central design. In the background there are other elements, such as a train passing over a bridge, a single house over a cliff, the image of the moon and a skeletal looking man with a woman that looks like a spectre.

Elmwych comic latest - breaking into mausoleums is exactly why they closed Highgate Cemetery but wolves rush in, as the saying goes.
#vampire #werewolf #cemetery

Dylan: It's heading towards that mausoleum! Panel 2: Griff and Dylan arrive to see the cloaked figure enter the mausoleum, which emits a bright red glow. Dylan: So that's where you've been hiding! Griff: Gotcha! Leave this to me. Panel 3: The door of the mausoleum is closed again and as Lydia looks down from it's roof, the others debate their next action. Griff is trying the door. David: Hold on, we don't know what danger we may be facing here! Amy: Maybe not... but we know this being will be in danger if we don't step up now! Panel 4: Griff suddenly rushes to ram the door with his shoulder as Amy looks on. Griff: Step up? You don't need to ask twice! Amy: Griff! No!! SFX: BOOOF Panel 5: The door of the mausoleum blows off, knocking Griff toward us with great force. The glow from inside burts out in rays of eerie pink and purple. SFX: BDDAANGG

On this Remembrance Day or Veteran's Day I'm hoping we as human beings finally decide not to kill each other because governments order us to.

War is delightful to those who have had no experience of it. And those who avoid it with bone spurs.
