How to feed the hungry

 

Parents, they know nothing!

Socially Inept

This happened to me today when I went to the comic book store. Yep a group of university students have footage of me unintelligently rambling on about pop culture. And the crap thing about it is if they really wanted to they can find me because I mentioned Bleakfield. I learned a lesson today, never leave the house, and if you really have to then don't talk to cute girls that come up to you.

Snot Cakes

Another comic about being allergic to everything!

The Cat's Pyjamas

Paige the creator of Pumpkin Spiced inspired the name of this comic, well actually she just called Bleakfield the cat's pyjama's. You should also vote for her here cause It's important to support women in comics, and I would love to have more info about making web-comics, I've only been doing it for a few months and I have so much to learn!

Sad Cicken

I wrote this with the idea of animating it. I was halfway through writing the music when I realised that one of the reasons I dropped out of uni was because my animation tutor pretty much told me I was shit at drawing, and animating and composing music is so time consuming!!!!  I can also be super lazy, It took almost a year of my boyfriends nagging before I picked up a graphics pen to start creating Bleakfield. Maybe one day when I become more confident with this stuff.

I've had so many views in the past week, thanks for the love guys!!!!

I don't want to be buried...

This song always gets stuck in my head!

A longer comic for all of you to enjoy, thanks for reading guys! So I tried to rip off the movie poster, misspelling and all, hopefully you can tell?

Plerr! Part!

 

So I have started another comic, it's about me and my issues. I mainly made this for me as a tool to help me deal with my own stuff. I hope to be posting this once a week if I can, Bleakfield will obviously be my first priority. 

I don't condone my behavior, I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

Whale Wednesdays And Tubby Thursdays

The battle of the bulge is really hard work!

 

I recently joined a gym, for like the millionth time! And I must say getting back into shape is freaking hard! Not so much the exercising and eating healthy, but trying to stop myself from starving and binging; oh the joys of having an eating disorder! I've decided I'm going to start another comic, one about my experience with having an eating disorder, I don't know if I will be sharing it or not, people tend to get quite uncomfortable or self righteous when it comes to shit like that.

Death By Boogers!

This was inspired by how sickly I am. I'm asthmatic, allergic to everything, I wear glasses and draw comic...Yep I'm a walking talking cliche!

Love!

So what if I have turned into one of those awfully sappy people?

 

I feel really lucky to have someone who supports me 100% with my art, and well everything that I do. I feel really sorry for people in relationships that don't have what I have, not to say that my relationship is the model that everyone should be aspiring to be like. I'm just really happy, and if you're partner doesn't make you feel awesome and supports you one thousand percent of the time, then well you should probably find someone who does. 

Bath Time!

There is nothing better than long baths or showers in the morning, especially when it is freezing like it is now in the usually sunny Sydney.

I'm late everyday because I take extremely long showers, I blame my mother. Since I can remember she would constantly make my siblings and I bathe, even if we hadn't done anything that would warrant a shower. The time we spent bathing was crucial, anything under twenty minutes meant that we were still unclean. 

 

Always a shower in the morning, which people I went to school with found weird because none of them did that. Now that I'm older I realise that the people I grew up with were disgusting, again not sure if that is my mothers influence?

 

I remember whenever I brought friends over after school she would always stand there with towels depanding them to shower straight away, embarrassing then but so hilarious now. 

 

Despite her cray moments, my mother is amazing! And I don't think it's that big of a deal that I used to have three or four showers a day. 

I heart street art.

Oh the age old debate! When it comes to preference it depends on my mood I suppose. Today I will be sitting on the fence.

 

So if you can't tell by the comic, I've kinda been obsessing over street art these past few days. I've been on Instagram instastalking (har har, I'm freaking hilarious) this dude, If I could I would marry his art. Objectophilia? No, I wouldn't even know how to figure out the logistics of that. Oh and if you have Instagram follow me, it's @joannathangiah, it's my name, how original!

 

So I've been trying to come up with a name for the girl in the comic, all the names I've come up with are either names of riot girls or from song titles. Is Sheena too predictable? Probably.

I've also totally forgotten what I named the Steel Panther dude. Sigh!

Shoes!

Amelia, like most girls is willing to put herself through pain for the

perfect pair of heels.

This was inspired by a not so recent trip to Christian Louboutin with my BFF Blaire, the stuff that comes out of her mouth is comic genius!

Every time Blaire comes to Sydney to visit we always go to these fancy designer shops. I don't know why, we never buy anything. I still wonder as to why we went to Louboutin, neither of us have the grace or coordination to pull of high heels, I mean I wear them for five minutes and take them off because they are so freaking uncomfortable, oh and I have chicken legs that can't support the rest of my body weight.

 

I guess we just like looking at stuff that is excessively tacky and shiny, but not all things shiny and tacky, only the items with a thousand dollar mark up. Remember people, despite your socioeconomic status you have to always keep it classy; this means walking into Chanel and being escorted out straight away because there are food stains on your $3 t-shirt, and your Doc's haven't been polished in four years. 

Just because you know you can't really afford to spend your savings on a hideous pair of shoes, doesn't mean they do. Best in theory not practice, much like communism, or in my case not doing the dishes in the hopes someone else will do them for me. And yes, I just compared politics with buying overpriced garments and house work.

 

Hipsters

Mean Mandy and Amira. Oh the joys of perception.

 

This happened to me at work today, sad to say it wasn't the first time. So what if I'm a twenty something, glasses wearing, beanie clad weirdo with unwashed hair, It's winter and I'm blind god damit! 

 

I mean I don't even know what a hipster is, does anybody? According to the boyfriend they like to sip lattes and say cool stuff like "let's talk about philosophy" and "mmm me too".

 

I don't get it...  

Kitty kitty.

The grossest tacos ever! Meet London, just a boy obsessed with Wendy.

 

So you might think this comic is a bit gross, but I think I'm freaking hilarious! Poop jokes are like the lowest form of humor, or is that sarcasm? Well I enjoy both, so I guess that makes me stupid? Probably!

 

Well I was reading a lot of Cats Versus Human when I drew this up. If you haven't already and are into cats you should check the comic out, it's pretty darn cute!

When art imitates life.

This was inspired by a conversation I eavesdropped on today between 'Clancy' and some other person. 

 

It's not everyday that I encounter someone so physically repugnant, with a personality to match that I just had to create a character based on them. Meet Clancy (the character holding the tray of cupcakes) .

 

I must say the resemblance between my drawing and the actual person is quite uncanny, that or I'm just not that creative.  

 

First Blog Entry

First blog entry ever! What to write...

 

From left to right: Amelia, Amira, and Wendy. I drew this because I have consciously decided to stop binging on junk food, it's been two days and boy am I cranky!

 

So if you have stumbled across my humble blog, you may be asking yourself WTF is Bleakfield? To answer the one person who has mistakenly clicked on a link leading to this page, I the creator have no effing idea. 

Based on the 'comics' you can find on my Facebook page, Bleakfield is an imaginary town that I have created that follows Wendy, a girl who loves her pets to death, and her zombie pet rabbit Bob. There are some other characters too, but as you can see by my skills (or lack there of) Bleakfield is still in it's very early stages.

Basically I love to draw, read comics, and complain about stuff that actually doesn't matter.

To whoever does read this, thanks for stopping by. If you ever do pop by again, hopefully the future content on this blog will be more 'meaningful' or 'thought provoking'.
