lb-lee: The images seem to be dead?

Aw, dangit. This is an ongoing problem I’ve been having! I can get the java code for the little etsy ad to work on my blog, but not the java code for the Society6 ad. If anyone has any suggestions, I’d appreciate them.

Anonymous: Not much to say regarding recent works. I just really want to say you're a really neat artist! Keep up being the helpful person you are ^_^             

thank you!

Anonymous: i recently came across your comic strip dealing with the relationship Homer, Peter, and Hank had with their sons. I just wanted to say that it was awesome, and a bit thought provoking. i had never put to much thought into those shows besides just simply watching it. i really enjoyed your take on it stuff. im not very good at complementing art and whatnot but yours is fantastic. keep trying cause its only gonna get more amazing! 😊😊   

thank you very much! It means a lot to hear my art got you thinking about stuff in a new way. For me, the goal of art is to communicate, whether that’s communicating my personal experiences or my perspective on something, so it’s really cool to hear that my scribbly attempts at communication are working!

Anonymous: I just wanted to write you a message to say I think you're really great and looking at your art (especially your comics) makes my soul feel good.             

Aw, thanks! Always glad to hear I can cheer the soul.

Anonymous: you're the one who did the therapy comic right? With the chris, bart, and bobby? i want to say at first it was weird seeing them all in the same place. but the message it brough across made me cry so hard because it hit so hard to home. it makes me wish i could be able to do what bobby did at the end. i honestly started cry, I've never really had anything hit me so hard like that. Dont take this the wrong way, its a good thing and what you drew has so much truth to it. I just wanted to tell you

Dang, I don’t think there is a wrong way to take such a heartfelt message. Thank you so much.

grad school has helped me level up my procrastination skills

while avoiding reading and homework, I taught myself how to use Sculptris and created a bust of a character for a huge sprawling comic that may never actually happen!

I’m pretty pleased, what with this being my first sculpt and all.

I dreamed that, even though I'm not on testosterone, I grew facial hair along my cheeks and jaw. I was going to visit family and I'm not out to them, so my mother insisted that I shave. Even after I shaved, there was dense, white blonde hair along my sideburns, like the feathers of a baby chick.

Scarf for a cousin, #3.

Because this was done with wool, I was able to felt the strands together every time I changed color.

Did painting today and yesterday; pausing for now because my arm and shoulder are hurting.

Another painting in progress

I never grew up with Simpsons, King on the Hill and avoided Family guy I have little understandings of the first two compared to family guy  I wanted to say your comic and art are amazing they feel like they have such heavy lesson to learn and your statement attached about your art and personal identity give me a lot of hope for me and my own art so thank you for sharing it with us all 💕            

Thank you for sending me such a nice message! Honestly, the biggest compliments are hearing that my work inspired someone else or that it helped them emotionally.  ( ᐛ )و

Hey I just wanted to say I found your comic again-the relationship counseling one, and it's helped me through a bunch of stuff.  

I’m glad it could help you. If you’re in a position where you’re not able to/comfortable with seeing a therapist, I totally understand. If you have the opportunity to see a therapist or join a support group, I do recommend it. If the responses to my comic (responses like yours) have shown me anything, it’s that there are a lot of people out there who can relate to these feelings and experiences, and we don’t have to go it alone on working this shit out.

One of my grad classes on Thursday requires a creative piece in response to a reading assignment and I just painted this thing fast as dicks. Three hours!
