Charlie Draws Here

After reintroducing drawing to my fine art practice, I've found that I need a repository for the odds and ends of my art practice as well as a place to explore cartooning and illustration.

I'm extremely #tardytotheparty for the #toonmechallenge but whatever, it seemed like a fun exercise. I managed to turn myself into Mr. Morgendorffer from, Daria. I think Max faired a little better. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #queerartist #toonme #queersinquarantine https://www.instagram.com/p/B_vrZMYpmZo/?igshid=gh486lsrupde

Outback era #Storm may be one of my favorite periods in her superhero career. She has regained her powers, is becoming a more proactive and aggressive leader, and yet is still human enough to question the choices she's making. It's such a profound period of character growth. Also, I love how much #TinaTurner circa #Thunderdome energy #marcsilvestri channeled into her hair and shoulder pads. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #queerartist #xladies #xmen #marvel https://www.instagram.com/p/B9CcKjjpCyl/?igshid=1833i8hliwu2l

One of my favorite bits of queerness in X-Men comics was the 1983 reveal that super femme nature goddess #storm was trading in her long flowing mane and disco supersuit for a mohawk and leather vest to celebrate her discovery of coded lesbianism and #stonebutch #fashion #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #queerartist #xladies #marvel #strongfemaleprotagonist https://www.instagram.com/p/B898Rv_JDhI/?igshid=neb0j2973uxl

After being blown away by the new Birds of Prey movie last week, I felt inspired. Here's my version of the film's female cast (exception for Bruce) as characters in the old Batman the Animated Series. New shirt is available at http://tee.pub/lic/CharlieDrawsHere #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #queerartist #gaycomicgeek #birdsofprey #harleyquinn #dccomics https://www.instagram.com/p/B8zKwTTJbUN/?igshid=rgq8kmhzar7y

I loved Birds of Prey, and seeing such a wonderful portrayal of Harley Quinn by #margotrobbie got me a lil nostalgic for the original #batmantheanimatedseries version voiced by #arleensorkin so I decided to mash my two favorite versions of the character together.

Finished a new series of X-Ladies t-shirts featuring my favorite characters in some of their best outfits.

Finished up a commission for a friend's DnD character. He wanted a Sailor Moon Transformation sequence ending with the character in a wedding dress that was a reward from an in game fashion show. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #queerartist #dndcharacterart #dndart #darksun #sailormoon #sailormoontransformation https://www.instagram.com/p/B53KT56pMIj/?igshid=122jpirxl20v6

A few weeks ago I bought an LED lightbox and it's really changed how i work, allowing me to make adjustments to drawings without having to completely trash the parts I'm happy with. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #queerartist https://www.instagram.com/p/B5sruZhJJsM/?igshid=1bzpiziy8tbjw

I was going through some of my #workdoodles that I saved when I left my last job, and found this lil doodle of one of my favorite performers #mxjustinvivianbond. Whatever "research the rest of the notepad was discussing wasn't nearly as important as that pink wig Mx. Bond was rocking on Instagram that day. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #queerartist #isweariwasworking https://www.instagram.com/p/B4lVbTZJKbe/?igshid=ufero0pawihb

Need a shirt/phone case/sticker/etc... that proudly asserts your love for all of your plant babies?

Not sure what to do with these kids yet, but I'm having a lot of fun with them. Maybe I can start doing plant portraits. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #queerartist #plantsofinstagram #plantdaddy #whosyourplantdaddy (at Bushwick, Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Ku2jyJmmD/?igshid=6z4cquemhib4

Sometimes when I get stumped or blocked on a project I draw X-Men from memory. I've lived with these characters in my head for years it feels like drawing pictures of old friends. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #xmen #queerartist #newmutants https://www.instagram.com/p/BxLScYOghmG/?igshid=923ztzejgulb

These are more #dnddarksun character sketches from our current campaign. I finished these up a while ago but remembered that I hadn't posted them when all the #maythefourthbewithyou posts made me think of how happy i was with the #slaveleia outfit I put on my friend Thomas's thri-kreen, Kati. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxFWEHpgfMU/?igshid=19t4o1copjtp5

Sometimes when I'm alone in my apartment, I draw goofy family portraits of Max, the kitties, and I. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #gaybeards #queerfamily #kittiesarekiddies (at Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwQlORcAG2E/?igshid=2epr0vcah4si

For shits and giggles I decided to draw a mashup of my favorite Drag Queen DnD podcast and my favorite childhood cartoon. Somehow #muppetbabies and #queensofadventure just work really well together. #charliedrawshere #drawing #doodle #sketch #workdoodles #adventurebabies #mattbaume https://www.instagram.com/p/BvzJEqSgNbI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=x5vkd93ud9fw

I had a lot of fun drawing all our plants at Max's so I thought I'd draw all the plant babies at my place. Mine aren't named after our exes, cause they're all happy lil girls who all got new pots today. https://www.instagram.com/p/BvsmIVzA1ft/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1k059bxk7j6qu
