Here’s the latest book in the Women Who Were Kings series, Catherine the Great, the Empress of Russia who presided over Russia’s Golden Age. Footnotes and art notes for the series are here.
You can buy it off my website, Amazon, Booktopia, online bookstores everywhere, and Lamont if you’re located in Australia.
Here’s the fourth and final installment of kid’s comic “Beating the Loneliness Monster” from Youkie Magazine in its July 2023 issue. Co-written with my niece Kelly, this is an awesome 8-page story suitable for kids aged 8-12, and for which Kelly has gotten a few fan mail about! Thanks to editor Nicky for making this happen!
Here’s some more School Magazine art, for issues 4-6 of this year. I’ll be doing some more great art for School Magazine in 2024 as well, so stay tuned!
Always great to work with awesome authors – in this case, the first is “Sai Wen Loses a Horse” by James Bean and Gillian Flaherty, and the second is “The Aeronaut” by Paul Malone.
I’m doing a manga workshop for FCBD at Manly Library, which is at 1 Market Place, Manly. It’s on the 6th May @ 1-2pm, so drop by if you’re free that day.
I used a video I did to post the announcement. It’s actually a Clip Studio screen recording, which when sped up and drawn in a certain way, looks like limited animation. It took a bit of planning, like the previous video with the girl in kimono I posted.
Part 3 of “Beating the Loneliness Monster” is in Youkie Magazine‘s April 2023 issue, which is co-written with niece Kelly Tao. The final issue of Part 4 will be out in the July 2023 issue. Meanwhile, this issue also has a 6-page short story by my good friend Julie Ditrich (Writer) and Angie Spice (Artist) called “Fade”, which is a fantastic look at girls who get too drained when they are too much of a people pleaser.
I recently had a go at screen recording my art in Clip Studio Paint, and discovered that you can do some fun animation stuff with it. A lot of work, but fun to play with.
