I made this comic for the literature festival ‘Québec en toutes lettres'. If you are in la ville de Québec, I believe you can find this comic displayed on a large panel or as a free postcard in these cute vending machines they’ve set up around the downtown. I don’t actually have proof of either, so if you are in Québec and you see my comic in the wild, please send me a photo!
The theme of this year’s festival is ‘climbing the light’ based on a line of poetry from Jean-Paul Daoust. My comic is a pretty abstract take on that. I was thinking about how great art can inspire people all over the world to create art, and how that art can then inspire future artists and so on, making this unending giving-and-receiving of light through our history. I was also thinking about birds (as I do sometimes), and how they do a similar thing with their songs.
The bird I’ve painted here is an Eastern Whip-poor-will, a night singer.

The last Passenger Pigeon and last Carolina Parakeet on earth both died at the Cincinnati zoo in the early 1900s.
Odysseus: *gently hands Athena baby Telemachus*
Athena: …you were PREGNANT AND YOU DIDNT TELL ME?!
Odysseus: what?- no-
Athena: DO YOU KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT IS?! I WAS TRAINING YOU!
Odysseus: no I wasn’t the one-
Athena: THAT POOR BABY WAS PROBABLY SO SQUISHED IN YOUR HELMET! LOOK AT HOW SMALL HE IS!!
Felt like drawing something cute today so have a happy little sun blob.
In case it's not obvious I'm buried deep in League lore after Arcane. Might do a matching moon gif later hehe

That Liliana Temult account on Twitter is un-ironically the funniest shit there is simply no way to mentally prepare myself for what shows up every time I check on that page
A kenku lady I got to play in a one-shot this week. Their name is Ananke and they are a lunar sorcerer.
Unpopular opinion: Oaki is precious and the happy little dance they do at the end makes following them through the woods worth it.
I was so excited to see the new trailer for BoTW2. It looks like another open world with a revamped map, and the Talus with Bokoblins on top is super cool. Can't wait for 2022.
