Don’t you hate it when your artwork goes totally viral, and as it goes on an elaborate global tour – flying around the world all dressed up in diamantés and sipping Dom Perignon – exactly ZERO people know that you made it because some a$$hol@ took your credit off the image before blowing it up?
Yeah.
Anyway, I thought I would relaunch my blog with a revival of said viral comic, properly attributed, in the sad hope that you all might share it and I can get rightly famous and people everywhere will be like “Oh, you mean Sarah, that woman who created that amazing comic?” And then Patagonia will hire me to illustrate for all their communications and I can buy a new yacht (because my ex got The Sea Monkey) and have a captain named Lars who wears really short shorts and … how is he so oiled all the time? And God, his hair, how does it always look so organically wind-swept and full and shiny?
You know what I mean?
And now for some less tragic news.
I am, on this here blog, going to be collaborating with Torre DeRoche – author of Love with a Chance of Drowning and The Worrier’s Guide to the End of the World to produce comics to tickle your giggle zone. With Torre on wordsmithery, and me on toons, we hope to bring you some fun, silly cruising-related goodness.
Fair Winds & Plastic Free Seas,
