Another year… spent December tabling and then recovering from tabling and then immediately went on to working on stuff for 2026 so not a lot going on publicly.

My riso print subscription was on break Dec/Jan but we’re back for Feb so here’s the 1st print for 2026. 3 colors (light lime, copper, medium blue). This year I’m doing a 6 print miniseries alternating with my standard “whatever I feel like making” - this is print 1 of that series.

New year so slightly more in-depth promo: if you give me 15 USD / month, I’ll use that money for living expenses etc and in return I will put one (1) riso miniprint in an envelope and mail it to you. Sign up by the end of February to get this print, more info on patreon.com/formyths.

Not really “new” but since I’m pretty much out of the first print run I did print a sort of “mass market paperback” 2nd edition of Skinning. Single color black riso ink + saddle stitched with red endpapers.

Bonus… some foals (from a Zeet studio life drawing session done with friends)… getting ready for year of the horse. Drawn with a bent nib fountain pen.

other news etc ✷

Thanks so much to everyone who stopped by at MICE + CALA! Was not looking forward to back to back traveling but MICE remains a show I really like and I had a really good first time at CALA. So far my next confirmed show will be:

• MOCCA fest (NY) - Mar 28-29

I am trying to have an observational sketches zine done by then (among the many other things I am currently working on right now)… we shall see…

Back to work…
