March 4, 2009
this is my "year of the ox" drawing for GRLA
being forced to suckle on ox mom teet
it's just a simple drawing that i framed
Feburary 25th, 2009
this is a comic about getting depantsed in front of the pizza lady by my brother and his stupid friend
and favoritism in my family, basically it's one of many stories of why my character (me) is always flushed in the face...from being embarassed over and over.
Feburary 2nd, 2008
