Day 1 of painting serial killer, Ed Gein’s farmhouse. I’m intentionally painting the whole thing very monotone… And at the very end I’m gonna have a single light on in one window that will be the brightest point in the painting.

First SPROING of the day. (Digitally hand lettered with my Boisterous B-Nib brush.)

Artists, PLEASE think about lettering when you're laying out your pages. Left to right, top to bottom. Most artists plan negative space (even if they're not 100% accurate) and that makes for a better reading experience. The others just create confusion for letterer AND reader.

Lovely day. I'm lettering a series with androids that look and sound like real people, so their dialogue typically looks just like a human. In this issue, one of the droids malfunctions and I have to reflect that in their voice...hence the crazy tail/wavy dialogue.

My cover to #BarFLY #1 from: Patton Oswalt, Jordan Blum, Kyle Starks, Ryan Browne, Nate Piekos of Blambot, DANIEL CHABON @darkhorsecomics!

By now, most of your know I play/collect guitars. Here's the most unusual and luckiest guitar find I've ever experienced! Read on...

In other news, I am weirdly obsessed with these cuddly crocheted Baphomet dolls on Etsy. I may need one for the studio. He's just so cute...and evil...and CUTE!

Any good indie horror movies I might not have seen? How was Nefarious? Any good? I have some time today to watch a movie. I’ve got most of the major streaming platforms available. Thanks.

ICYMI: BZZ BZZ BZZ! Barfly rides into Twilight City this July with Kyle Starks and Ryan Browne?! More details about the new series from the world of Patton Oswalt, Jordan Blum, and Scott Hepburn's Minor Threats: bit.ly/3x3WUEz

Ace in your face Friday

You'd be amazed at how many different tasks on different projects a letterer jumps between in a single day; Lettering pages, dressing covers, designing credits pages, designing cover blurbs, pre-pressing projects, and some of us design logos and fonts, too!

Wide Wednesday.

Some of my favorite Ryder pages from issue 001 of Ain't No Grave from skottie young Nate Piekos of Blambot #jeanfrancoisbeaulieu and myself

Out today from Image Comics

Lovely day. So far, I've designed a 3rd option for a cover blurb for Skottie, I prepped another 20 pgs of Masque for Wendy Pini, and now I'm tinkering on 3 different font ideas. One of which is Project B-Nib Shouts, which will have a condensed and extended version (on the bottom)

Good morning. I made these letters, and they make me...

AIN'T NO GRAVE #1 is in your comic shop now! Honestly one of the most beautiful projects I've ever lettered. Jorge Corona -Big Sugar- and #JeanFrancoisBeaulieu have outdone themselves, and skottie young's writing the HELL out of this one! Letters by yours truly. Editing by #MarlaEizik .

NIIIIIIICE.
