FOR LOGOS it's important to note that the default kerning within a typeface is an average of however each glyph works best, NOT ITS BEST USE IN EVERY SITUATION! Be sure to go in and properly kern your wordmarks for clarity, rhythm, and balance. (also, this icon is reject from current project)

ADMITTING DEFEAT! - I simply cannot keep up with maintaining shaved head. I guess I will just keep it some version of "short" for a while. ALSO - I am back in the states, my studio, and regular art posts.

I was lucky enough to do a cover for @henrybarajas.bsky.social 's DEATH TO PACHUCO #5 (avial to order now). The setting for this story is deeply personal to me - My grandparents (pictured here) were in Los Angeles during this time and (tho not Pachucos, per se) could've been targets of aggression

Sweating the small stuff - part of what I love about classic comics is all the clerical information and marginalia that was done by hand. I totally understand not wanting a cold slab of clean photostat text carelessly slapped onto an opening splash that I fretted over.

For a decade & a half, Marc Maron’s podcast has kept me company while I went about my workday. I was continually impressed with the insight & unique tack he plotted to connect & reveal his interviewees. In 2018, I got to do this poster for a show in PHX & hang with him a bit - he was great!
