this was for a section about Maurice Sendak that the New York Times put out yesterday. I got to be in some great company with this one.

Cheer up Jon Snow, it might never happen

A small tribute to a man whose work meant so much to me.

I’m sure I’m not the first to think of this one, but I felt compelled to make it anyway. Maurice Sendak’s books and drawings have had an unquantifiable influence on the work I make everyday. He was a master.

So: thank you, Mr. Sendak, as you sail off to rule as the wildest thing of them all.

I’ve been toiling away at many many busy projects, and I’m finally popping my head up to go out to Toronto for this year’s TCAF. It’s the best thing of its kind every year, and I love it so much I can’t describe. I’m sitting at table 153, back by the base of the stairs, beside the lovely wishing pond and several good friends, and potential new friends, like a few of the Adventure Time fellas!

I’ll have gobs of things (assuming I get all my baggage to come all the way to Toronto with me) such as: new t-shirts, new doodle/activity books (plus a DELUXE edition), a new mini-comic, new buttons (and how!), a reprint of my Three Bears comic along with the usual pile of gorgeous prints from Cloudy Collection, a few original drawings, and maybe some on-the-spot custom doodles, just for you?

On Sunday afternoon, May 6, I’ll be doing a tag-team Simple Characters drawing workshop for kids with Melissa Mendes. Come find us on the second floor from 3:45-4:30!

I love this show. It really is the most fun I have at this type of thing. I come home exhausted, but so thoroughly inspired to make more stuff, which is great, since I’ll be working on my next book with Kids Can Press for the rest of the summer!

I. Love. These. (the above one makes me think of Andrew Schick, too.)

I love everything Michael DeForge makes. Everything.

I agree with Mr. Gaiman again and again, all day long. Also see this great interview that Matt Forsythe reminded me to read.

I was just thinking today how much I love Tom Gauld’s work. So I am posting this here so other people will love it too.
