ILLUSTRATION
I've recently branched out from collecting cels to collecting original art of many types. I especially like art by comic creators of any stripe, and have amassed a bit of a collection. Needing a place to showcase this, I've added the illustration section onto my gallery.

CLAMP
Kind visitors may have noticed that I like CLAMP. Thus, the opportunity to meet them at Anime Expo 2006 was incredibly, amazingly exciting. And the resulting shikishi is absolutely beautiful.
Lucifer
Art from a print comic, rather than a web-based strip! Marc Hempel was selling pages of his wonderful issue of Neil Gaiman's Lucifer at Balticon 2006 and I caved in to the temptation.
Queen of Wands
Queen of Wands marks the first time a web comic I read has actually completed a set plot arc and ended, rather than been cut off or discontinued by the artist, and I am all the sadder for it. I loved this comic.
Eversummer Eve
This beautifully drawn webcomic is a joy to read, not least because of the art involved. I was lucky enough to catch the artist, Denise Jones, at Otakon one year and commission this piece from her.
Grayling
A lovely and complicated comic about gods and demi-gods, Grayling has beautiful art like no other. It was an unexpected pleasure to see artist Arborwin K. at Otakon and get a sketch from her.
Kagerou
A comic by turns hysterical, trippy, and incredibly heartfelt, Kagerou is somewhat hard to describe. Much like this picture by artist Luka Delaney.
Megatokyo
The artist of Megatokyo, one of the most popular comics on the web, frequently makes appearances at conventions across the country. This sketch comes from Otakon 2002.
Schism
A comic with a wonderfully realized world and an art style both gritty and unique, Schism is a joy and an adventure to read.
Your Wings Are Mine
One of the first web comics I ever read, YWAM is the sort of story to curl up with on a cold winter evening in front of the fire.
Bunny
Quirky, timely, cryptic, and bizarre, Bunny is one of the best and most unique comics on the web today and one of the few true comic strips.
