NEW WEBSITE, MOCCA, AND UPCOMING EVENTS

Just want to tell you folks that I have an official website kittensforlunch.com

I have a blog there and I can't for the life of me redirect it to this one, but nonetheless I'll still use blogspot.

So yeah, hey guys. So as you may already know, MoCCA is over. Wonderlustcomics had some difficulties getting our table, so we weren't able to sell our zine. So yeah. But other than that, MoCCA was great!

And I literally gave out all my comics. I got good reviews for my foldy comic from awesome artists too, so I’m pretty much happy. :D

It was the best two days of any conventions I’ve attended. Ever.

Below is a mix of free swag n’ stuff I bought at MoCCA:

I HAVEN’T READ ANY OF EM YET (It’s quite intimidating, I don’t know where to start! D:)

But I’ll definitely post some comic reviews for yalls. SO PSYCHED.

OH OH OH BEFORE I FORGET:

I will be having work presented at the SVA Digital Projection Comix Reading on Friday, April 22 from 7pm to 9:30pm at the SVA 3rd fl. Amphitheater at the 23rd st. main building.

It’ll be my first, so LETS WATCH KAT MAKE A FOOL OUT OF HERSELF AND POP HER LIVE COMIX READING CHERRY.OK.

ALSO

On Easter (aka April 24th, on Sunday) a talented friend by the name of Stephanie Mannheim will be doing a comix reading for The Sequential Artists Workshop Easter Fundraiser, along with other great comic artists: Dean Haspiel, John Kerschbaum, Lizz Hickey, Josh Bayer, Domitille Collardey, Leela Corman, Seth Kushner, Leslie Stein, and Martha Keavney.

(Her work is great, ya should check it out at http://www.stephaniemannheim.com/portfolio/)

It’s located at the KGB bar upstairs theater on 85 East 4th st. from 7-9:30pm. ($5 admission).

OH! And ANNOUNCEMENTSSSS:

According to plan, so far I’ll be having work at:

  • April 29th: Fresh Meat (mini con at SVA lounge; more info on that soon!)
  • June 10-12: AnimeNext (sharing it with my friend Christina)
  • Aug 14th: Philadelphia’s Alternative Comic Con (with my bestie Moony)

January Madness Dump!

Hey-o Daddy O's!

Tis been a while since I've updated my blog. Yikes!
School's been extremely hectic for me; last semester certain life events made me fall behind with primarily one class, and with the help of the domino effect, I fell behind in all my classes.
It was crazy.
And my time management sucked since then. I've been having a hard time completing homework assignments (aka comics) due to my curse of perfecting work. It's a pain.
But I'm loving my classes (my teachers, Tom Hart, Matt Madden, Jessica Abel, and Jason Little are the best cartooning teachers. They really are! google 'em folks!), and the comics I'm making definitely looks better than the earlier ones I made in the beginning of the year (I'll post the ones I like soon, I promise!).

So other than school work, I've been working hard on Wonderluscomics!
My friend Bort (http://bortstuff.com/) reserved a table for MoCCA (Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art Festival) that's being held in April 2011. And Wonderlustcomics is sharing the table with him!
Exciting!
We're planning to have an issue done as well as pins for the festival!
It's currently in progress and can't wait for the end result! :D
Here's some drawings/drafts so far:



Cap'n Kat final character designs


Quartermasta Paiges final design



some doodles


So, for those who are following this or are unfortunately reading this crappily written post, you might have remembered me saying I was gunna make comics everyday and post 'em up.

NUH UH. AINT HAPPENING. 'cause I'm not really emtionally prepared for that extreme task with my OCD tendency to perfect EVERY FUCKING PANEL OF MY COMICS.

So in the meantime, I'm going to beat myself up when I don't provide ya guys a drawing per day.
We'll see how Kat fails. We'll wait.

Here's January 29th 2011's drawing:





My friend Lior at the top,
and moi at the bottom.



It was a crappily (I semi-like the character flow) made Burfday card for my very good friend Lior Zaltzman, who is a super talented young artist from school. She's one of the few important people in my life recently who has inspired me, and gotten me into using brushes and nibs again (using microns this whole time, what was I thinking?! durh).

Ya should check out her artwork! http://liorca.net/ .
Really beautiful stuff she gots there. And her comics, DON'T GET ME STARTED.
Her brushwork is AH-MAZING.
She's also having a table at MoCCA so look out for her work! :D

Ok guys, I'm gunna start on work now, so take care!

See ya hip kittens,
-Kat!
