A refuge for my kooky toons from the lecture notes margins.
Welcome to my illustrative art section, studio:margin, home to my amateur comic strips from the margins of my school notes. Featured here are my early experiments in using Adobe Illustrator to create kooky gag-type cartoons you can cherish in their smooth outlined, fully colored glory. They led into a summer of slightly more evolved art in the form of Threadless submissions in 2006, which included a joint entry with Brianna. More may arrive here in the future, and some more work is on display at my sister site at Monstercyb.org.
