featured artist TONIGHT!

2010-04-03T10:14:00.001-07:00

i'll be at the alwun house tonight for femocracy, for which i'm this month's featured artist!

i'll be signing copies of hoozdo issues 10 & 11 (the ones with my "secret underground phoenix think tank" series), along with selling framed copies of your favorite linear thinking strips. i'll also have some handmade mini-sculptures for sale, as seen in hearts & crafts (at the phoenix film festival next weekend).

last, but certainly not least, since the theme of the evening is "happy birthday, eddie murphy!", there will be a limited edition framed copy of a special linear thinking comic dedicated to this momentous occasion. here is a sneak peak:

hope to see you there tonight!

typically, my office humor exists as the two dudes in the one cubicle.
in this strip, i wanted to show of my talent with ladies' hairstyles.
this one was probably inspired by my years of terrible short haircuts.

guest artist!

2009-08-10T10:43:00.002-07:00

i'm a guest artist on supple wine this week:
http://www.supplewine.com/comics/guest/.
i'm blending two of my passions with this gig.
(comics & wine, in case you were wondering.)

office mates

2009-08-07T16:09:00.002-07:00

these are two recurring characters in the cast of linear thinkers.
i don't know what boss had the brilliance to stick them together in the same cubicle, but they don't really get much work done.

the blind date

2009-07-25T18:08:00.004-07:00

this one is a little more...thinky.
it's also from my college ethics course in 2002, which is why my signature says "jessy seck" (if you can read it).
i find serious stuff to make more sense when it's applicable -- & funny.
as always, click on the comic to read it.

how do you get everyone on board with the direction society is headed?
by establishing a deliberate consensus!

cartoons - punchlines = how-to success!

2009-05-21T17:21:00.004-07:00

these were two how-to comics i made when i worked as a college counselor to help staff & faculty with ways to refer students for counseling.
they aren't funny, but they accomplished their purpose.

nothing says "perspective" like a close-up on a crayon.

this was my first attempt with adobe illustrator.
i had drawn this comic in my notes during an intro to logic class in college (got some great comic material in that course!).
since i had been banned by my designer friends from using MS paint, i decided to give illustrator a go.

sometimes i draw on paper (like at conferences), and sometimes i use the computer.
this one was done in MS Paint.
i may be the only who still uses that application.

this is my first post, as evidenced by none preceding it.
i drew this during a lecture at a conference i don't remember anything from.
click on it for added readability & fun.

oh, and welcome to linear thinking!
