This was an experiment where I took a day's worth of my live tweeting/Facebook Statuses and turned them into a small comic, complete with the "Likes" and comments I received from my friends thru-out the day.
I hope it's not offensive to the participants, if it is let me know and I'll take you off the comic.
That day I had an interview for a job at Trader Joe's in Silverlake where my gf Ava works. I ended up not getting the job, but I did get offered a job soon afterwards as well as this neat little comic outta the experience!

We'll Miss You Harry Potter...

So I've started a very YELLOW, brand spanking NEW Tumblr, called Daily Doh!

http://dailydoh.tumblr.com/

Here's an explanation of sorts in it's side-bar:

I realized that every day before I get out of the shower, I ALWAYS doodle a Simpsons character on my shower's steam covered window door.

It's a ZEN kinda thing I guess.

This is my attempt to capture the spirit of those shower doodles via my trusty sketchbook or wacom tablet!

This is in no way affiliated w/ or endorsed by Matt Groening, The Simpsons, or Fox.

(Unless, they wanna hire me or something.)

In a nutshell it's daily Simpsons doodles by yours truly!

And w/ that I'm gonna hit the hay in melatonin induced slumber.

Doh-ly yours,
Jeaux

I Smell Macaroni & Cheeze! Tom Hart @ SVA interview on Youtube: the sketch-note

Yesterday I won a free 5x8 sketchbook from Blick Art Materials, and I also purchased a few comic making supplies (i.e. mechanical pencil, brand new Tombow brush, a pack of bristol board, etc.), and what better way to break in the new sketchbook than by doing a sketch-note page at 3a.m.?

Better yet, why not make it a sketch-note of cartoonist Tom Hart on the Youtubes giving an interview at SVA?

It's a 9 parter, broken up into 5 minute clips, and there's some pretty great nuggets and kernels o' good ol' cartoonin' wisdom oozin' on out of 'em.

If you'd like to see them too, click here.

Unless you're lazy, than you can just watch the first installment down below.

Thanks for being such a great and encouraging inspiration Tom!

Cool Peeps Sketchbook Drawings Series

So, I have a nifty new sketchbook that I am in major love with. It was made by Tyler Bender Book Co., and he re-purposes, re-sizes, old library books.

The pages are heavy and dense and can handle most strong markers without heavy bleeding to the next page and the binding is pretty durable. I love the size of the book and it's fairly intimate for both artist and reader/lookie-loo. In this case, the book that was re-purposed was Stars Fell On Alabama by Carl Carmer.

Needless to say, I carry this book with me everywhere I go and I doodle in it ALL the time!
Lately, it's become a bit more valuable to me since I began letting friends and heroes alike, doodle in it too!

Here's a few of my favorite doodles folks have been kind enough to give me thus far:
Sherm Cohen doodles up a great bad ass Perry, Agent P for me during my field trip to Disney last week!
Another great Sherm Cohen Quality Brand Doodle!!!
Here's a Robert Williams, the granddaddy of "Low-Brow", sketch note doodle I did during a lecture of his at CSUN, that he was kind enough to autograph for me!
Here's a doodle I did of Young Matt Groening/Old Matt Groening that Matt Groening was kind enough to autograph too! I met him at Gary Panter's Lecture/opening a couple weeks ago at PCC!
A doodle by my pal Kat Rivera! She is the doodle queen and fun to draw with!!!
Ran into Johnny Ryan at the Gary Panter Lecture/Opening too! Yea, it was a really cool nite! He doodled me this original Blecky Yuckerella all up in my sketchbook's grillage!!! (and apparently meditating too!)
What can I say about Gary Panter? The man is a fricking geniux. And he drew me an original Jimbo sketch in my sketchbook!!! Cool, eh? This was during his Lecture/Opening at PCC!
Here's a great doodle Cristina Paulos, the other half of Doubled8, did for me of one of my characters: the fabulous Fez-tastic Porter Duck!
A great blade-runner-esque doodle in my sketchbook from the equally great and harrison ford-like Chad Essley!
Here's a great Porter Duck doodle from Chad Essley in mah sketchbook!!!
