So I just said in my previous post I was going to try to post more, so let me start that out by belatedly posting the comic I did for the @sequentialartistsworkshop Friday Night Comics workshop this past Friday.

Unfortunately, I am not going to be able to attend the @sequentialartistsworkshop Friday Night Comics workshop this week, because I'm working this afternoon. (Well... there's a slight possibility I may be able to make it if it turns out to be a very short workday. But it's unlikely.) But I did attend the workshop last week, and, uh, didn't get around to posting my comic until now.

Last week's workshop was hosted by Anand Shenoy (@anandpagalkutta on Instagram), and the theme was "aimless comics", basically just start with a grid of 2x4 panels and... draw a kind of an aimless story, without worrying about where it's going. The only further restriction was that there should be at least two panels with dialogue.

So unfortunately I was unable to attend the @sequentialartistsworkshop Friday Night Comics workshop today due to a work conflict, but here's another old comic from a previous week that I hadn't gotten around to uploading before. This one's from June 6, 2025; the host was Miriam Rae-Silver, and the "assignment" was to draw a four-panel comic showing a natural place changing over time... so I drew tidepools at different times of day.

Aargh I have been busy with work and haven't been able to attend the @sequentialartistsworkshop Friday Night Comics workshops for a while, but I still have some comics from old workshops I haven't posted yet, so… I'll post one of them now. (I also have other art I haven't posted yet, but I want to get caught up with the Friday Night Comics comics first.)

These pages are from the June 28 workshop, which was hosted by Robert James Russell (@robhollywood on Instagram). The first part of the assignment was to draw yourself as three birds that in some way reflect your personality. So I chose first a woodpecker, because I have a tendency to (figuratively) beat my head against things (and also this species of woodpecker was named after someone with my surname, though that's not really a personality thing), and a kakapo because they're awkward flightless birds and I often feel like I'm awkward and have trouble doing anything, and a weaver bird because they're known for creating elaborate nests so it reflects my desire to create things.

Then we were asked to draw a comic featuring one of the three bird characters from the previous page interacting with its surroundings or other characters in a way that reflects its traits and personality.
