A very “Fall” Saturday in New York! 🍂🌧️💨

Rainy, windy, and definitely not the kind of weather that makes you want to leave your cozy corner… but absolutely worth it!

On Friday and yesterday, Villa Albertine hosted a fantastic series of talks bringing together talented authors, illustrators, and creators from different backgrounds.
What a pleasure to meet such inspiring talents, exchange ideas, and connect with some of them.
These encounters are exactly what makes the world of comics, graphic novels, and visual storytelling so exciting — creating bridges, sharing perspectives, and discovering new possibilities.
Thank you, Villa Albertine, for bringing everyone together! 💙

Last weekend at @spxcomics I led a workshop where people made "imaginary comics" that might exist within the world of another comic (think "The Itchy and Scratchy Show" from the Simspons—or my own Ex Libris, which just came out in paperback from @uncivilizedbooks!). We had a lot of fun, here are a few of the resulting pages.

I was in Jessica's studio admiring the ink work on this sketch lying on her flat file and she said, "YOU drew that."

I have no recollection of drawing this, looks like a park in France or maybe South America?

Anyway, nice to be reunited with this mystery sketch (she founded it in an otherwise blank sketchbook). by @mmaddencomics
