Hello all!

First of all thank you for even being here in the first place. If you're a twitter or tumblr follower thank you for all the support you've already given me, internet high fives to each and every one of you. As a husband, a father, and an artist my life is busy in the best way. With this comes financial responsibilities of course and working part time only gets us so far. Your support will not only help me create more content, but it will help support my family. You will literally be putting food in our mouths.

There are nearly 30 pages of Vie Utile available now, but for those new to this page I will be starting the comic anew this year with the hopes of publishing it. Your support will make that possible. As my schedule going forward no longer allows me to do weekly updates I will be putting as much time into VU as I am able to with your help. I'm also glad to announce that I've partnered with writer extraordinaire Ian Aspden on another comics project, Seventh Circle. I'll be releasing a short comic as an introduction to this world soon.

I love making art and I love even more when you enjoy it. I will continue to create in the hopes that it makes even one person crack a smile. All I ask is that if my work has brought a smile to your face and you have to means to help a brother out please consider contributing to my campaign.

So where does the money go? 100% of the proceeds go to directly supporting my family with things like food, clothes, rent, and bills. Your support will allow me to focus on creating art, and help me continue to update Vie Utile at a consistent pace.
