Whew! Quelle weekend!
First things first – I’m starting to transition stuff over to a new Etsy store (one that has a more reasonable name than “Artemna”, which is what my store is currently called), and I just placed my Mad Men Greek Myth prints up there! In a couple weeks there’ll be nothing left in the Artemna shop, so come join the party over at LipsticKissPress!
The Three Graces of Mad Men
I’ve got loads of news and updates and fun. But allow me to take a moment to gush about how wonderful all the people were who came by to stop and chat and purchase things at my table at the Baltimore Comic-Con were this weekend!
I usually don’t like to harp on the fact that I’m a woman making comics (*gasp*!) but luckily for every douchebag that comes up to me and ridicules my stuff (especially Boobage - mature, right?), or asks me if I’m the comic artist’s girlfriend, or just wants to take a picture with me but not read any of my stuff … there are families, dads, moms, kids, teachers, fellow comickers, and comics fans who come by and make it all worthwhile. They tell me they identified with one of my awkward stories, enjoyed the gore of my assassin comic, or are as much of a Greek Myth nerd as I am. And that just puffs me up with happiness and makes me want to do so much more. So thanks, everyone!
The Greek God wrist cuffs were a HUGE hit, I’m so thrilled! I have more gods and designs and plans to do custom orders soon, so stay tuned!

In other upcoming news, Bonnie will resume updating next Wednesday, August 31st. Mark your calendars! And look for Gods & Undergrads to resume soon, too.
Now – on to the sketches I did this weekend!

As always, if you’d like a commissioned piece of artwork, contact me and we can chat!
You are the BEST … sorry to have missed the Baltimore Comic Con and so glad the Greek God Cuffs worked out! Wait … is that why we had that earthquake? Love you!
It was such a pleasure meeting you Monica! It’s great to see local talent out there especially since I’m a MD’er. I enjoyed your “Gods & Undergrads” books and can’t wait till book 3 comes out. Your art just keeps getting better and better!
