Really Pleased With This Page So Far.

I’ve decided to become a person who paints and draws over unsuccessful sketchbook pages, rather than leaving them to fester.

One of my grad classes on Thursday requires a creative piece in response to a reading assignment and I just painted this thing fast as dicks. Three hours!

A few years back (maybe 3?) I saw your couples therapy comic and I spoke about it with my own therapist and went "wow, that was a lot of violence on kids in those cartoons and it was downplayed normalized." And in turn helped me realize that my own issues with my parents were downplayed and normalized. I'm in a much better place and I wanna say thanks for helping, in the small way you did just by sharing your comic with tumblr.

Thank you for messaging me! I'm glad to hear you're in a better place and I hope therapy was beneficial to you. Whether it's from a therapist or from a friend, it can be really important to have another person validate that what you went through WASN'T okay.

charismaticoutcast said: These are really neat! Do you mind me asking how you put your artwork on shirts/other accessories like this? Is it silk screening? I tried doing this awhile back and failed miserablyXD

No problem!

I use a printing service -- society6. I size my images to their specifications and they print and ship the product for me. They use, at least for the cloth products, a "direct to fabric" printer. I've ordered shirts from them before, but only on white so I can't speak for the other shirt colors, and the images have always been well printed and pretty darn colorfast.

However, because they do the printing and shipping, I only get a portion of the payment. But, compared to other printing services, their prices are pretty good. At society6 a 21x28 inch print costs $35 and I earn $8.65. You can raise the prices on your prints so that you earn more, but I try not to price myself out. Compare that to the print services at DeviantArt where the standard cost of a 24x24 inch print is $45 and the artist earns $7.50.

I haven't done screenprinting before, but I have used linocuts and fabric ink. If I ever chose to sell those, other prints that I created myself, or original pieces, I would sell them somewhere like etsy or storenvy, where I would just pay for hosting on their website and would be able to set the product prices myself.

I haven’t posted WIP pics in awhile because it drives me crazy when those get more interest than the finished pieces but I need to show off all my cool sketches.
