I have a tuxedo cat I named Chadwick in honor of this actor, who left us far too soon.
My love of comics started when I was very young and I would spend hours copying the art I saw in those comics of my favorite characters.
The ideas for my comics come from real life interactions that I have and hear. Those small nuggets of ideas then go through a brainstorming and writing process to turn them into fully form jokes.
My creative process is hard to pin down. I spend one day a week dedicated to only writing. I gather up all the thoughts and ideas from the week and try to shape them into full dialogue for a comic strip. The process is part structure and part chaos.
I grew up loving the masters of comic art, like Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko and John Romita. However, the biggest influence on my art is the newspaper Sunday funnies. That art always stuck with me because it had the power to make people laugh.

Got a 70+ year old crate of 'em in my garage
