Weirdo Comics - Tumblr Posts
A couple of Weirdo things in progress. The top one is an idea for a print and the bottom is going to be a figure. Weirdo is mine and she lives here: Weirdo Does Stuff
Here’s a proper overview of what I am currently working on. The biggest things are sculptural ocular tripod creatures, the intended result of which you can see above, and a number of ball-jointed dolls; the dolls are currently in the planning stage. Outside of that, I have a couple of figurines, and some fanart projects for fun and to give me something to practice techniques or processes on. All in all, more updates as progress is made.
Prints currently in progress. These are the color renderings for some hand-drawn limited edition screenprints/serigraphs I'm doing at the moment. Rather than using photographic emulsion, my studio partner and I have been experimenting with a tusche-and-glue method. I teach drawing for a living and her background is in lithography, so the direct mark making is a real appeal. These prints are going to be reduction prints, so the whole color process is done entirely on a single screen. The top one is Poludnica, the Noon-Day Witch. I did a sketch a couple years ago and thought it would make a nice print. The third one down is print versions of my nesting dolls. The bottom, obviously, is Weirdo.
An array of stuff on the work table.
The sculpture phase of Weirdo is almost finished. I’m just finishing the base. After that, it’s onto the molds.

I made a small hand-colored edition of my pasta machine prints. Image area of 5.5cmx8cm, edition of 5. Plexiglass drypoint and rag paper scavenged from the recycle bin.
