Like Like and Lovesick art shows

artwork Nikki Burch

WOW!! This year is starting off quite well! The cartooning and drawing group that I'm apart of here in Seattle, the Bureau of Drawers is having 2 group art shows surrounding that Lovely day, Valentines day.

First, on Thursday, Feb 10th at 6:00 pm, we open "Like Like".
Here, a large portion of the group will be showing pieces representing the things they "Love" at the Cafe Racer in the University District.

Second, and this is big one to come in Second place... "Lovesick", a finely curated show at the Fantagraphics Bookstore on Saturday, Feb 12th starting at 7:00 pm.

Guest Editor for Nib-Lit

So I was asked by a Mykl Sivak to be a guest editor on the comics page called the Nib Lit that during the school year is published on the back page of the Southern Connecticut State University paper. I've been featured in several of the issues, along with Tony Millionaire (Maakies) and Shannon Wheeler (Too Much Coffee Man).

Since the school year is out Mykl is keeping it alive via a blog and through Facebook. I just wrapped up my first editing job on it and it's available here as a high res PDF. On this blog you will also find all the previous issues and more.

For this issue I asked a few of my old colleagues (Levi Bailey, Matt Biolchini, Ben Lyon) to contribute and then a new friend (Nikki Burch). All did an awesome job and as it turns out I'll get at least one more chance to edit another issue.

So pass it along to your friends and neighbors and give some love to those who contributed. If you're on Facebook connect to the Nib-Lit here and if not, I can pass a message on to whomever you want.  

Thanks for your time. Enjoy the comics.
