Existential Comics

Another old one cleaned up and recolored.  This was definitely in the queue, but I moved it up when I saw the outstanding "The Germans Play Monopoly" comic by @ExistentialComics.

I had fun working on this, but it's easy to spend too much time tinkering at the computer, rather than drawing.

Like most people who want to do comics, I idolized Schulz as a kid.  But I also think I sometimes over-identified with Charlie Brown, and that's what 'Blockhead' is about.

Concentration


Another old picture.  An ink exercise that turned into a color exercise.

I was completely absorbed in this, and so called it Concentration.  By the end I was having strong emotional reactions to these colors; the story of the picture ended up being the gradual defeat of the green!  I'd like to try it with different color palettes.
