Steampunk Zodiac 2017 Calendar

18 days left for my Steampunk Zodiac 2017 Calendar and we're within striking distance of 50% funded. I appreciate your consideration of support!

Clockwork Alchemy and Kickstarter

I'll be at Clockwork Alchemy held at the Double Tree in San Jose, CA from May 27th to 30th. I'm sharing the space with Bobcat Publishing at booth #36 in the Artist's Bazaar.

I launched the Steampunk Zodiac 2017 Calendar today! If you're coming to Clockwork Alchemy and show me your pledge at the booth, I'll give you an extra gift as a thank you for your early support. I will have some of originals from the calendar on display.

I will have a few more manga and/or drawing classes for kids or teens confirmed soon for July.
