Hello again, after 15 years. I am still drawing, albeit very rarely. I've changed careers and I work as a baker/pastry chef. I'm now in my forties, so I'm focused on my health, my family and friends, and just trying to get by. So my skills as an artist are stagnant, but in this world that wants you to use AI and be joyless, I consider any manual drawing or creation a victory. And I am still proud of these newest rough pages of my comic "Strange Bedfellows". 


The comic is not posted anywhere since Smackjeeves closed down, and I don't want to get anyone's hopes up about it. But I want a place to post art. I'm disillusioned with using social media or Deviantart (RIP) for that purpose, so I decided to revive this old blog. The title is appropriate, "Scribbles and Etchings Left Behind" I think past me knew what she was about, lol (Honestly the rough pencil stage is my favourite part of doing comics and any art)


This is not a promise that I will update regularly or even occasionally (even these pages were drawn this past fall). I'm hoping that sometime in the future, I can work less and do the things I love more. It is difficult but that is the goal. Thank you for watching this blog, I'll do my best.💖

Poster work


No, I didn't forget this blog... I wish I drew more that I could show you ^^

This is a poster illustration I'm working on for a cosplay picnic that I'm involved in. It's all voluntary so I'm not earning anything from it, of course :) But it will be nice that a lot of people will see this art by me around Charlottetown. I hope you enjoy it as well, I'll post the finished version soon. Have a great day!!

Good morning!!

Hello all! Not much to say, but here's a few sketches:



Was watching Princess Bride last night - people paused the movie though because a friend needed to get picked up so this was the result of that pause:

I'm really not that great at drawing realistically, but I'm getting better :)

Strange Bedfellows Chapter Two is coming along good, though I tend to work on a whole bunch of pages at once and finish a whole bunch of pages at the same time as a result. I've got up to page 6 mostly drawn out and somewhat inked ^^;

Oh yes, I'm attending Animinitime in Moncton, NB, this July 17th: http://animinitime.org/ I'll be in Artist Alley, giving away free preview books of Chapter One. I was debating printing up Chapter One on its own, but I might wait until I have more of the comic done before going to print.

And for your amusement, I'll leave you with Gimli and Leggie in the Fangorn Forest:

First entry!!

Well, woohoo, whoop-dee-doo, I started a blog! ^^; It'll mostly be to put up sketches and rough work, with the exception of some finished works, as well as to talk about my comic Strange Bedfellows. The comic can be read at: http://stranfellows.smackjeeves.com/

For now, here are a few sketches I've done recently:




Hopefully I'll be back soon with more drawings~!
