Sorry Trapper Fans- His Art Is Going To Be Late Because I’m Working On This Pretty Much Obsessively.

Last year I started watching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and it quickly became my favorite but also made me think hey, the Star Trek franchise has so many different stories in the same universe, why can’t I come up with some?

So I created my OC’s and their story- Star Trek: New Life. I’ve been working on this animatic for about a month for fun and while the quality has definitely gone down closer to the end, I’m still super proud of it!

I JUST FINISHED THE WINNERS AND THERE WILL BE MINOR SPOILERS

when I say just I mean like 15 minutes ago— There are still dry tears on my face.

The way Mr Backman spoils the book for us over and over is flawless at giving individuality to the story as a narrative, giving it its own voice, but it’s also a top notch literary device to cultivate plot twists. I was so preoccupied with him telling us—from the beginning—who was going to die that the things that Bang the dog, Mumble’s ending, and all the other little tragedies we watched happen took shocked me to my core

On the subject of the compassion and hopefulness— I can’t even begin to put into words how I feel about the “Time travel can’t be real” lines and the lines written on all the different tombstones in the story, or Alicia’s story

Cannot deal with how the story of Beartown knows itself inside and out and how it tells itself so nonchalantly, spoiling things left and right, and killing our notions of a happy ending before we even get the stupid idea to hope.

"She won't succeed." "It won't be enough." "He will be too late."

But what gets me is how the story also so obviously cares. Cares about the people, about the events that went down, and it knows that the outcome can't be changed but it wishes so damn hard it could be.

"Obviously we still hoped. Dear god, how we hoped." "The people in this town who loved him. There were so many of us."

It's not them, it's us. Almost like the town itself is telling it. Fredrik Backman I am in your walls.

ART FOR EVERY BOOK I READ THIS SUMMER PART 5: Love That Dog by Sharon Creech

Just a quick little sketch for a book that makes me cry. Happy Canadian Thanksgiving.

For the character portraits series (which I absolutely adore btw) maybe BJ? I’d have to think of some other iconic BJ moments but the “whatever you want” line about his name is a potential one that comes to mind.

Thank you!!! I’ve been really enjoying making these. BJ’s apathy towards his name is so funny any definitely on my list for him is “what say you, ferret face”

I think that settles it. BJ next

MASH S5E2 “Margaret’s Engagement”

Frank: *to Margaret* Might be nice to have a little youth for a change.

Hawkeye: Is it too late to fake my death?

Shame does not stop ingenuity.

It’s Alvin and the Chipmunks as humans.

Dear Dad,

I am finally going to the after life and Charon’s ferry moves so fast that my heart doesn’t have the time to leap out of my chest and into the ocean below me. No one told me the flight would be so lonely. I have not been alone since the moment I was born. I cannot wait to see you again.

I REALLY loved A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik and will probably have more art as I work my way through the books
