En Colombia!

Hola Parces, I'm writing in Colombia waiting for the gang to be ready to go out. Slowly learning spanish (estoy apprendiendo espanol despacio) and quickly making friends. Everyone here is amazingly friendly and welcoming. Can't say enough good things about this country.

In other news, PULPO! has been on hiatus since I've taken my recent job. My job should be done by September so I'll be qucikly returning to PULPO! I've made alot of promises to friends as well as myself to finish this project and I'm excited about getting back to drawing tentacles and forced perspective city streets.

In the meantime, here's two pages from PULPO! I rushed to ink for submissions for SVA's portfolio catalogue. I definitely want to redo these again but here's proof PULPO! is moving forward. Pages 9 and 10 where Pulpo breaks free from its underground cell.

I'm also looking forward to doing a couple short comic pieces as I wait for my schedule to clear up enough for PULPO! A very walt kelly inspired version of little Red Riding hood as well as a quick less comical three page story i wrote one day-I can be serious sometimes

the PEEPS have been up to alot lately and we are looking forward to finally getting our latest EP, Our Crazy, pressed and printed. We expected to be on vacation here in Colombia but we've been pretty busy with shows and interviews here. If only we spoke more spanish! We have a video out on youtube right now for "The Sun" and you can also listen to the sun on our myspace.com/thepeepsny. Keep an eye out for Our Crazy!
