I devour furthermore created Descender, Unlit Hammer, Gideon Falls, Plutona and somewhat worthy all the pieces else I’ve ever written for DC or Shock right here. Despite the proven reality that, truth be educated, I attain a form of my writing at house. This house is worn about 70% of the time for whatever I’m drawing for the time being, and, as you can have the option to behold, to house all my books and art work.
Here is my drawing desk. I were drawing at a standing desk since engaged on Roughneck in 2014. I fancy the shuffle it offers me, and I catch much less tired after a long day of drawing. I attain all my art work historically and simplest use a Cintiq to scan and structure my pages when they’re done, and to attain minor digital tweaks and corrections.
After I attain scan my pages, right here’s where I tweak and structure them. One other standing desk. I blueprint standing up and write sitting down. Save no longer know what that claims about me?

Splitting the months into weeks, I try to work on one venture per week to stay on agenda and take care of recent ( I needed to blur some stuff that I will be capable of no longer focus on yet).
Taking one ingredient at a time, one week at a time, helps to take care of me from feeling overwhelmed. As the Huge says to Agent Cooper in Twin Peaks season 2…”A direction is made by laying one stone at a time.”
Some of my totems of energy! Dolls of my characters made by my gifted partner, Lesley-Anne Green.
This changed into as soon as made personalized for me by my father. The bottom drawers pull out and preserve all my floppies. The tip three drawers preserve my usual art work.
