More “Heroes” Doodles
I know, “Heroes: Season One” was sooo…several years ago. Most of my TV experience comes after the fact, on DVD. (Buffy, Six Feet Under, all my faves.) I first watched “Heroes” on my 3rd ship. They showed one episode a day, on a loop, on one of the crew channels. (Ship life often involves watching […]
Some “Heroes” Doodles
I spent last week’s train trip to New York watching season one of “Heroes” with my mom. This was the first doodle to come out of that; more to come.
Finally some Pittsburgh-buildings!
My first attempt at drawing buildings with a Pentel brush pen. This is a street in East Liberty that I’d only seen from a car window. When I accompanied my friend Scheiny to the Femme Show, I had a minute to chill on South Highland Ave. and check out some of the old buildings. (This […]

Off the subject, how many times can a person apologize for allowing lengthy time lapses […]

Lynn was a bridesmaid and I was a groomsperson, so last week involved lots of appointments, carpools, dresses, cupcake stands, and more importantly, several nights of catching up with friends from high school–gulp!–eight years ago.
Before & After
The ballpoint-pen sketch is from a train trip to New York. We got stopped by freight traffic before we were all the way out of Pittsburgh, so I sketched the view out the window. I liked the clutter of buildings and trees and wires, and the challenge of making it all intelligible when I redrew […]
Eating Well in Pittsburgh
In case you’re in Pittsburgh and are curious, this comic features Oh Yeah! ice cream, Sushi Too, and the Coffee Tree. All within walking distance of each other, by the way.
