i've drawn this before but

it's the center of everything. every time i read something about feeling your feelings and then not using them to help yourself become a monster i feel like i have rediscovered an alphabet.

the midwest and the damage done

i did a series of comics while visiting minnesota this past fall, on a family trip to scatter my grampa's ashes. some of the stuff that happened while we were there was too dark to draw about, or at least too dark to share the drawings, but some of it is just dark enough.

my mother not knowing a better way to share in someone's happiness than to make an unfunny joke about it being potentially full of shit and on its way down the tubes is pretty key to the way things move and shake in my heart.

and then gram just needing an outlet for shrieking.
