The Secret Guild of Water Tower Engineers
To celebrate the relaunch of this web site (and my new layout), I’m posting pages from a comic I’m working on. I’m drawing it on pages from a water treatment handbook – which I think is very appropriate. As is the water color.









Also – I’m submitting these pages for this week’s Illustration Friday prompt, “adapt.” Our man in the story is doing just that, as a lot of people are during this great recession we are having.

Absolutely brilliant! I love that you used the book as background, and the spin on that knuckleball, and the blue of the watertower. I look forward to following the story of this man.
