All this for a lame joke?
One of the nicest things we talked about, however, was how we as a group of cartoonists support and encourage each other. We've promoted each other's books, we worked together on telling the Nativity story in cartoons, and we met together (via Zoom) with the Church magazines when they changed format. We celebrate each others' successes.
It would be easy to consider ourselves rivals in cutthroat competition for what is definitely a niche market. But that seems the antithesis of what LDS cartoonists should do. I'm honored to rub shoulders with such outstanding people!
Pictured here are: Summer Bird, me, Arie Van De Graaff, and Ryan Stoker. Don't know who the MC is!

The back story
Recent studies, however, have brought new information to light. Like how his trials started when he was a kid.

A milestone!
In case you don't recall, this is my first cartoon that was ever published — a long, long time ago. Never did I dream that it was the first step in the road that would bring me here.
Thank you for your readership and your support. Here's to many more!

This little gospel light of mine
When my son returned home from his mission in Arizona, his face and his arms had a deep, golden tan. The rest of him? Not so much.

Sketchbook: The new bishop
It might have been more appropriate to run when Infinity War or Endgame came out. And in a way having Bishop Thanos reminds me of the time we had Darth Vader as president of the elder's quorum. That didn't turn out too well either.

Sketchbook: Where can I turn for peace?
That's not a problem we've had with our pets. We had one dog who tried to fetch the lit fireworks — ground flowers were his favorite (he also liked to fetch golf balls). Our current dog is just as content to sleep through them. I guess that's one way to cope!
Have a safe and happy Fourth, wherever you are!

Sketchbook: Reflections
This is one of those times when the sketchbook is full of sketches, even if it's a day late.

This thought entered my head
I chose the latter option for my most recent trip, but even the backup plans seemed to go wrong. Here's what I didn't expect: just because a place says they have internet doesn't mean that it's reliable internet. Connectivity was a challenge.
Scanning is another challenge. It's one thing to pack a laptop; quite another to pack a scanner. There's the ol' scan-with-your-phone trick, but that's less effective when you can't get good lighting. You may not notice, but the perspective on this artwork is a little bit off. I had to shoot at a slight angle and make a few corrections in production.
Anyway, I think I've got the bugs worked out and I can catch up on things. Thank you for your indulgence. Have a better day than mine (and it's actually pretty good)!
