Each year, my dear friend and comic artist Alex Nall asks a friend to make a portrait of his Mom’s dog Kirby. How thoughtful!

In 2020, that was my turn. It was really fun to make, and for the first time I experimented a bit with gouache to add a little texture to the paper before cutting it.

On the other photos you can check out other iterations of Kirbys by Mike Freiheit and Mike Centeno. Click on the pictures to get to their websites.

THis was a very fun project and I can’t wait to see a full wall of Kirbys in a couple years!
