Latest Public Arts
I post public art every Friday (and sometimes more)! Everything is also crossposted to tumblr, mastodon, pillowfort, bluesky and jpawlik.com/blog with sketches and thumbnails up over a month early for all Patrons and VIP members!
I also made a SheezyArt for public art, I've been enjoying it so far but we'll see if it sticks or not.

April's Sketchbook
This month’s sketchbook is up for the Grab Bag tier on Patreon and my VIP Blog
Just on time, here's April's sketchbook! There's some really silly doodles, concept art for another new idea, and some fanart for a game I just finished up and REALLY enjoyed. As always some very good (Jigencentric) shoutouts from the Private Collector folks, thank you for your support!
Cool Comic Recommendation
Awkward Zombie by Katie Tiedrich
So I've been reading Awkward Zombie since I was 16 in 2006 and I cannot believe Katie is still going strong on these. The comics continue to be an absolute delight. If you haven't read or heard of Awkward Zombie, they're one pages comics usually about various video game goofs; including Smash Bros, Legend of Zelda, and more!
Nib & Ink Fest 2025
Starting tomorrow is the Cartoonist Coop's big month long online event!!! It's free and anyone can attend!I've been on the NIF committee since the concept began (I got to name the fest itself wow!) and I am so excited to see it come to fruition.
