TPD 158 – Catching Up and Advocating

#bluespottingI did a little sketch to support a friend’s project today. Upon reflection, I realized that advocating for projects I believe in is hard-wired into who I am, and in this Thunder Punch Daily I explore why that might be.

TPD 157 – How and Why

Art SoundOffThis time I respond to an Art SoundOff entry by Owen Jollands, who submitted some thoughts on how we might apply more scientific thinking to our art analysis. Having no scientific background of my own, I share how teaching comics classes has improved my own journaling and reflection.

TPD 156 – Art Journaling and Teaching

TPD 155 – Using Tapastic

Boulder and Fleet, pg 3This time I share a few thoughts on the experiment I’m running with the Boulder and Fleet webcomic. I’m posting the comic natively to several different channels and observing different results from each of them. Tapastic, in particular, has presented some interesting challenges in terms of interface and surprises in audience interaction.

TPD 154 – Bookmarking

pinterestAfter going through my weekly ritual of digitally gathering inspiration reference materials (in prep for this week’s LIA Cast), I realized that I haven’t quite solved the problem of cataloging and reviewing digital reference files. Today’s TPD is comparing the benefits of physical “reference morgues” vs digital ones.

TPD 152 – Vision vs Audience

Boulder and FleetThis time I share the surprise I’ve felt in how relaxed I’ve been about the Boulder and Fleet webcomic. Surprise invites the question “why,” so I explore what is different between this webcomic and others I’ve run, which leads me to some thinking about goals, vision, and an author’s expectations in terms of audience.
