Manifesto Items, 2011-present

Issues 1-9 of “Manifesto Items,” 2011-2019

 

The comics in this series are products of my hand and heart, and as such, are “manifesto items” from the unwritten manifesto I live by as an artist and a person.
The reason this series began, and continues on an annual basis, is Short Run, a truly wonderful small press comic con that happens in Seattle every fall.

I’ve been teaching Haiku Comics for the last 4 years. Issue #15 of Manifesto Items will collect a large portion of the haiku comics I’ve produced in that time.
