A single-panel color comic strip in the Weird Wednesday series, set against a light blue sky background with halftone dot shading. Two alien creatures are visible from the shoulders up. On the left, a tall pink alien with a long neck, one large eye, small eyelashes, freckles, and an oversized mouth wearing bright red lipstick grins broadly, showing human-like teeth. A speech bubble reads "I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS EARTH PAINT WILL HELP." On the right, a shorter green alien with freckles, a small tuft on top of its head, and a sly, knowing smirk looks back at the pink one with quiet confidence. The joke plays on aliens attempting to blend in with humans by wearing lipstick — referred to as "earth paint" — with one alien skeptical of the disguise strategy while the other seems entirely convinced it's a solid plan.

Earth Paint

New Weird Wednesday: one small tube of lipstick standing between them and a perfect human disguise. If aliens tried to blend in using only one human product, what would actually work?

Yes I’m awake

So springcon was awesome. I tabled next to the fine folks over at Hollow. Got to talk to old friends and even sold a few things. Now I just need a nap, then I can do comics.

Snow

I have been resisting the urge to complain about the snow. Today seems like a good day to complain though because I think we’re at the end of it. Last night we had another snow storm and it dropped roughly 6 inches of snow. Wet.. Heavy.. Deep.. snow. I normally (this late in the season) ignored the snow and let it melt on its own. This though was so thick and wet I even had a tough time plowing the snow. To add insult to injury on the news last night they pointed out that in April we have had more snow then any other month this season. UGH!

I both hate and love April Fools day

For a number of years I didn’t even pay attention to April Fools Day. I’m just not into fooling people I guess. I love a good gag and I respect people who can pull off a clever stunt but too many times a April Fools day joke that sounds good in planning becomes a wreck on execution. So far today I have only see the cute kinds of April Fools Day gags but I feel the need to possibly stay off the internet today.

Hats!

So I have been spending my drawing time being horrible. I started loom knitting. I will have a few of these for sale and have plans to stop looming so I can prep for the up coming shows. I want to give you a sample of my hats though. green and black knit hat Pink with Black Skull knit hat
