Hey there, fellow adventurers of the world! Living abroad can be a whirlwind of emotions. The excitement of exploring a new culture, the frustration of not being able to read the simplest signs, and, of course, the occasional wave of loneliness that crashes over you like a tsunami. But hold on tight, because in the heart of Japan, there’s an unexpected perk that arises from the foreigner experience – the art of disconnecting.
Hey fellow comic enthusiasts! Today, I’m diving into the exhilarating journey behind my collaboration with Curt Pires on Simulation Theory.

Welcome, comic fans and fellow architects of imaginary realms! The life of an artist isn’t always a bed of roses. It’s a profession that is rife with inner turmoil. Maybe that’s why artists are often shown as having a screw loose and author’s are often portrayed as drunks – they grapple with a lot of inner demons. And today we’re going to talk about the artist’s arch-nemesis, the king of all inner demons – self-doubt.
Child labor – pretty much EVERYONE sees it as a bad thing. I, for one, am grateful that I didn’t have to work in the mines instead of going to school (although I was never happy to go to school).

And that worker wonderland is Kidzania – actually one of the best ideas ever!

Hey there,fellow adventurers of the digital realm! Now, imagine this – you’re cruising along on the high-speed internet highway, sharing your artistic escapades, when out of the digital shadows emerges a troll, ready to turn your creative haven into a battleground.

So today we’re going to talk about that.

Today we’re going to talk about drawing, without which comics would be… well… books. I’m going to tackle questions like: what does someone need to know to draw comics? What does someone need to get better at drawing? And a lot more. Because you don’t need to be an ‘artist’ to be able to draw. I believe drawing is a skill that you can learn. And here are 4 skills to focus on.
