Buy a print or visit my fourthwall shop!

I'm Brian (he/him) and I make art. This blog is mostly for my illustrations, but I also do comics, short and weird writing, and vocal synth music. I have a sideblog for reblogs, doodles, and photographs. You can find me on Instagram with art and music, and YouTube with music.

I have a short psychological horror comic on Webtoon Canvas and Tapas from Halloween of 2023.

Here is a guide to what I post on this blog:

DREAMS FOR SALE DAY !! New episode out on Webtoon and Tapas at 12 PM PST, 3 PM EST !! Lots of Easter Eggs in this one, definitely not limited to these characters from comics by @/smuppey on instagram, @/kasebrots on instagram, and @sheisawantedman

Probably the worst part about making a comic is that in order to get people to read it I have to talk about it. If I could talk, would I be making a comic? I don't know. Go read Dreams for Sale and let it talk for itself, how the heck do I know what it wants to say?

Four Frankposts in a row, do I get a medal now or do I get shot?

I’m starting to lose track of all the songs I’ve used for these two at this point so if you see a repeat no you don’t <3 From this point on, nobody is allowed to tell me to touch grass because I went to the North Sea and then sat down and drew this. It’s permanent.

Frank’s dress is (approximately) from the Sears spring/summer catalog 1959, and Margaret’s outfit is also 1950s Sears but I don’t remember the year because I closed my reference tabs (oops).

Double Frankposting today, am I allowed to do that (question mark?) 😳

This looks like the kind of picture that should have a bit of dialogue in italics at the bottom but I couldn't think of anything. Actually I didn't have any thoughts at all while drawing this, I reserve that for bigger and more detailed things 👍

🗣Headcanon time🗣

I think for a long time Frank dresses like an absolute dork because she was praised for being Neat and Tidy as a kid, but post transition she has to learn all new fashion rules, so she ends up looking pretty good. Definitely still Neat and Tidy and nothing creative, but needing to buy new clothes brings her a step up. It doesn't matter that we don't see Frank in civvies on the show, I KNOW she had a closet full of polo shirts back home.

((I should have been a clothing catalog illustrator but that job pretty much went out when photography got cheap and easy </3

ALL HAIL THE 4:3 ASPECT RATIO!!!!!

Honestly I just drew this to practice spatial tension and then went totally overboard. I think it's interesting how we pretty much never see Frank's dog tags, but Hawkeye's are always out in the open. Hawkeye thinks about death all the time, but I wonder about Frank. Seeing as how he never got very far past an elementary school level of thinking, does he really understand that he can die? Frank is scared all the time, but I don't think he's that much more scared being in a warzone than he would be in daily life. There's another thing to upset myself with :)

New episode of Dreams for Sale out on Webtoon and Tapas !!! Links in my pinned post!

I'm really proud of the colors on these two pages in particular. I never thought I would say this but this chapter is starting to make me like drawing crowd scenes! There aren't any easter eggs in this part (not that I can remember, anyway) but there are a ton coming up in the next episode hehe. And of course there's also a horrifying crowd scene approaching 👀

Inprnt update!! I added my best recent work as well as some slightly older things that you guys loved <3

My P*E*A*N*U*T*S are always my bestsellers, and rest assured, I do have more in the works! But right now I'm giving the spotlight to more detailed pieces in my own art style. ((P*E*A*N*U*T*S are still available of course)).

I do understand the impulse to post “conservatives want HIM in the women’s bathroom? [image of masculine trans man]” in response to bathroom bills, but also please consider what you are actually saying with that. People aren’t getting thrown out of bathrooms because creeps are peeking over the stalls and looking at their bits, they’re getting thrown out because of easily perceived traits like height, facial hair, clothing, and voice. In real life, it can be impossible to tell whether the person with facial hair in the women’s bathroom is a trans man or a woman with PCOS or otherwise intersex or a trans woman who doesn’t pass. I get that “you want HIM in the women’s bathroom?” refers specifically to the trans guy in the photo, but broadly it’s saying that anyone with masculine traits shouldn’t be in the women’s room which is…you know…exactly what conservatives are saying. You simply don’t know a stranger’s sex or gender just by looking (and it’s no one’s business). Everyone I mentioned above DOES get thrown out of the bathroom, we’ve seen it happen. Even cis perisex women get harassed for peeing while butch.

And all this is not even mentioning that conservatives’ goal ISN’T to put trans men in the women’s room and trans women in the men’s room. The goal is to make us unsafe and even illegal in public spaces, pushing us out of sight and eventually out of existence. They don’t want us in any bathrooms at all.

Frank studies and the obligatory girlification. One could make the argument that I like her, but I don't know, more evidence is needed.
