Season One Finale, now on Tapastic!

Hey fans!  I have just wrapped up Season One of Shelby and the Blooms!  Click HERE to see it and/or subscribe!  Season Two will be released first as a b+w zine at Anime Expo in July, and as a full-color webcomic around the end of summer.  In the meantime, I'm working on a secret project for the series.  Stay tuned!

The Shelby origin comic is here!

After months of hard work and late nights, it's FINALLY ready!  This comic tells the story of how Shelby formed her band.  It is 21 pages long, and each page is highly detailed, and shaded with screen tones and grayscale.  I will debut it at this year's Anime Expo (July 3rd- 6th), then feature it on my etsy page.  

Gender Flip! Now in Technicolor!

Starting clockwise with the drummer, we have Marly, Rollie, Mikey, Shane, and Breanna! 

Shelby and the Blooms Gender Flip!

I've been working on a few things lately.  I will soon have three full-color posters available for purchase on my etsy shop!  They include: the original Blooms playing their instruments, this gender-flipped version, and a mashup of Cupcake Wizard and Sophie as Jabba the Hutt and Princess Leia, respectively.  Of course, the Shelby origin comic is still a work in progress.

New K Pop band!

Since my show and festival booth, I've been catching up on video games (Skyrim), reading, and t.v. shows.  I have managed to find a little time to come up with a band for the bug side of the Shelby series.  They are a 3-member K-pop group, and they're bees.  Their group name is 3B.  Note how each of the girls' rooms matches their overall look and posture.

Long Story About Two Buttons

So, I have a vending machine in my classroom that sells various handmade things to help raise money for the class supplies.  One of them sells buttons of my characters, and in every batch of buttons, I hide two bonus buttons.  One of the bonus buttons gave the winner a choice of two custom buttons.  The first winner was a 6th grade girl who at first requested two buttons that I had already made.  She later came back (after advice from a friend) and switched her order to these two requests: The entire Blooms band playing their instruments, and the fantasy offspring of Chubicorn and Donusis sitting in front of the entire map of Shellrim.  Keep in mind that these buttons are barely larger than a quarter.  So I made the requests (pictured above), and changed the bonus button rule so now the winner gets ONE custom button!  

Welcome to the site!  Soon, this will be the place to 

follow the adventures of Shelby the snail, and her 

band of bug friends, The Blooms!
