I hate people that plug their own stuff just to do it, but I actually think people here will appreciate my work. There are illustrations, and 12 part stories about young people in relationships in NYC. Here are some preview images, and let me know what you think, thanks.

The art is fantastic. I also like the format. I think the content is good in most but not always spot-on for me. I don't recall anyone referring to other people as "apes" out loud growing up in Brooklyn for example. Dialog in that one in particular seems forced.

Thanks! What you're referring to is a single panel from a 12 part story that's 9 panels each, and that character referring to people as "apes" is a reflection of her elitist attitude. Plus, she's not from Brooklyn, her and her boyfriend were walking around, on their way to a dinner party.

Ok interesting. I'll def have to look at the whole story from the beginning. But yeah, this is really impressive stuff and a fresh take on things. Dope stuff man.

Appreciate it. That panel is from the first 12 part series I did, "Yeah, YOU'RE Cool." You can read parts 1 - 12 here:


Yeah, YOU'RE Cool
