Comic Arts Brooklyn

This Saturday I’ll be at the great Comic Arts Brooklyn festival, at Pratt, with the Uncivilized Books table, which is A19. It’s along the far wall, I believe. I’ll have brand new copies of My Dog Ivy. Admission is free, come on by.

Inappropriate

This is just to announce my new book, Inappropriate, is coming this January from Uncivilized Books. Inappropriate is a collection of my best works, many of them involving animals doing inappropriate things.

Big July Diary Post

This is the first year I wasn’t able to meet my own challenge of one comic per day in July. I’m so glad I gave up so early, though. I’d have made myself miserable and been difficult to be around, once again. Instead, I really enjoyed making the comics I did do, and I was really involved in the actual life around me.
I’ve been out in the mountains in Northern California for the past month, with limited internet access, and have only been able to post these on Instagram (@ms.gabriellebell), but now I’m compiling them up here for you, in case Insta is not your thing. I’ll keep working on and posting this series as I go along, now that I’m back in civilization.


Oh-I forgot to mention-if you’re wondering why it’s so messy, it’s because I’ve been drawing with my left hand, to rest the RSI in my drawing arm, but also because it’s become a fun challenge.
