Oh boy, it’s been a while! We’re back in Portland now, back in our house, since May 1. I have a lot of little comics from our roadtrip back here, I’ll scan them soon. But for now, here’s what happened today.
I re-discovered a brush pen I really like using!
Just drew some geese and a tree the other day. It was so warm outside!
A weird thing I drew in a bar and took a picture of with my phone.
Drinking beer, drawing silly things (with apologies to Kate Beaton) (Taken with instagram)

A page of doodles from my notesbook. Been busy trying to keep up with my journal sketchbook, makin’ a website, and havin’ fun with a visiting friend. Oh and some work. Huh!
I started this back in December. But I guess it’s somewhat appropriate for Valentine’s Day!
Old-Photo-Booth-picture self-portraits — plus, Tilda Swinton watches over my shoulder.
Maybe today’s the day I buy a pencil sharpener!
Also, here’s the original scan, sans-shading. I never thought to do any coloring/shading on these before about a week ago. I still like the idea of the pages being able to stand on their own when you look at the physical sketchbook, but I do like being able to add the flat values in Photoshop. Maybe someday I’ll try adding different values with markers or watercolors to the physical book. Once I get over the fear of “ruining” the drawing (which I do with inking all the time anyway…)
Sketchbook Journal: January 20. Meanwhile, I’m caught up (with penciling) to January 28! I still have to go back and ink a LOT of pages. I will probably never finish. Never. (Maybe this summer)
Some more haircut comics! I split these into two images so they can be em-bigger-ed… bigger.
I'm Jill Quackenbush and these are my sketch-ba-doodles! This summer I got hitched to Todd Quackenbush and right now we are on our extended 3-month honeymoon SLASH working vacation in Brooklyn. We normally live in Portland, Oregon.
