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 👀
Mastodon reminder: 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)!

Patreon Updates
This month’s sketchbook is up over on Patreon!
This month’s sketchbook is HERE and it’s lots and lots of concept art this month. I’m quite pleased with where my art and concepts are heading lately!
Highlights include: Detective Jigen AU sketches for reasons 👀, lots of Curse Eater concepts and fleshing things out more, some fun freelance sketches.
Did you know I do post a sketchbook PDF at the end of every month? AND you get access to the entire Sketchbook PDF collection archive if you’re a $5+ member?!

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 (you won’t get charged for August!!!), there’ll be no comic updates, no social media posts, and no newsletter. I’ll be back in September and Patreon billing will resume on September 1st, hopefully stronger and better than ever!

Other Things
Websites have been mostly migrated over to my Canadian host and I’m so excited to save a lot of money on this.
I’ve been getting really in to creating a home server for myself, so that’s been a fun silly techy hobby I’ve taken on. It’s like my own Google Cloud/Netflix/Libby all in one and I own it! I used this video as a jumping off point and gosh, it’s been really nice to have!
ComixCleric is looking for help with their costs to keep the project going. I think CC has the ability to change the webcomics world up in a good way, consider checking them out!
I also managed to finish all my many many freelance projects that were due this month, I’m so tired, but I made it, I’m FREE!
Go read Delicious in Dungeon and apply this to everything you do! (I used this in the “Reclaim Your Right to Rest” talk I did back in May)

I’ll be back in SEPTEMBER! wooooooo, hope you have a great rest of your summer and have fun~
