Starting the birds I saw while in Japan for my honeymoon! I was so excited to do some birdwatching in Japan.
Edit: oops, it was actually a Great Tit, not a Coal Tit!
Sometimes I draw some very cursed things in my sketchbook. I just need to get the ideas out of my head.
Did you know I have over 100 sketchbooks up for my Grab Bag tier?
Did you know Alola Darumaka, a silly fancomic webcomic, is free to read?
Some wonderful shoutouts for my Private Collectors, we are so here for JigZeni y’all!
If you’re interested in a doodle like this, the beginning of the month is the best time to sign up!
Happy Pride everyone, hope you’ve had a great time celebrating wherever and whoever you are!

Latest Public Arts
All Friday public art is crossposted to tumblr, mastodon, pillowfort, bluesky, and jpawlik.com/blog and TWO months early for $1 and up Patrons — which also include sketches and thumbs with almost every piece, if that’s something you may be interested in 👀
Little social update: I migrated Mastodon servers so just double check that you’re following me at comicscamp.club/@jeypawlik instead of on mastodon.art/@jeypawlik

Webcomic Updates
This month’s OJST comic is up (and it’s SFW)!
Happy Pride everyone, I really wanted to do a celebration of being trans for this one. Complete euphoria!
The Trans March is my favourite Pride event in my city and it gets me emotional every time. Just seeing so so many people come out in support of trans folks is just incredible and I get weepy while marching.
Read My Little Trans Joys here for free!
My OJST Pledge Drive comic is also up and available on the OJST Patreon. This month is the big push to get funding to keep OJST alive for another year. Consider checking it out!
This time I’m sharing my feelings about sketchbooks, why I love them and how I’m trying to get back into sketching more!!! I also included my April sketchbook PDF for the OJST fans
A new short 10 page comic is already 3 pages in! Written by Max, this is about Zenigata, his marriage, and his relationship to being a husband.
Buckle up because this is a sad one!

Announcement for August (IMPORTANT!!)
I’ve decided to take ALL OF AUGUST OFF!! Like completely, for the first time ever. I’ll be pausing my Patreon, there’ll be no comic updates, no social media posts, and no newsletter. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up well in advance! Then I’ll be back stronger than ever in September.

Cool Comic Recommendation
Phantomarine by Claire Niebergall
Ready for some ghostly summer fun on the open deadly ocean? Be sure to check out Phantomarine!
A ghostly princess must sail across a haunted sea to save her soul from a devious, shapeshifting death god known as the Red Tide King — the Red Tide King being extremely gender and I enjoy very much~
~~~
Other Things
I’ll be doing a “ComicFury101” talk for Cartoonist United members on July 11th @3pmEST with co-panelist Beefsen, so if you’re a member please stop by and check it out!
I’ve been having slightly less website issues but I’m still working on moving my webhost over to a Canadian host, I think this will also happen in August as to not mess with any work emails or RSS updates, etc.
On some really fun website news, I’ve been beta-testing the new webcomic framework, ComixCleric, and I have been greatly enjoying it! Like a LOT! I cannot wait to play around with it even more and maybe even post some comics using it~
~~~
Ahhh once again, happy Pride everyone! See you next month~
This year’s Make a Terrible Comic Day comic, something that’s been on my mind a lot lately. OOPS!
Back in 2006 I drew Sora on my very first version of Photoshop Elements with a tiny Wacom Graphire Tablet. And this ended up being something I’d come back to and redraw every few years. I hope you’ll enjoy this walk down memory lane with me 20 years after that first drawing!
2006
2013
2019
Was doing some digital brush testing with some gradient maps. I do love drawing my girl Diana~
Commission for TLC of their OC Greeg, and what an absolute delight this was to draw!
I’ve got one slot still open for comms if you’ve ever been interested, I don’t know how long the slot will be open for!
Shoutout Requests from the Private Collector gang, I had a grand ol’ time drawing some fanart for indie projects (Go buy In Stars and Time) (Go read Exorcism Academy 🔞), and as always some really wonderful Jigen/Zeni. I’m very happy to be known as the Jigzeni artist!
If you’re interested in a doodle like this, the beginning of the month is the best time to sign up! You’ll also get access to my entire archive of either SFW ($5) or NSFW ($10) art, comics, and over 100 sketchbook PDFS?! Wow!
I got married to Max 3 years ago today and never shared photos?!
I did write a comic about it though…
Go read that maybe?~ https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/i-got-married-jey-pawlik/ (it’s SFW)
I also just posted a behind the scenes of this comic on my Patreon if you’re interested too 👀
