Hey all, my name's Mike and I mostly stick the artist's thread around here but I've met a lot of Whitechaplain's who don't frequent that post ( or at least don't comment in it?) so I thought I'd share this bit of good news with everyone. There was a very nice article in the Toronto Star about my indy/do it yourself comics and art today. I had to scan it because I don't think it's online...

As for discussions , certainly let me know what you think of the article but more importantly this would be a good opportunity to share & celebrate other stories about successful indy-artists, underground entrepreneurs’, and hell even comic- pros (how they got started, wierd tales,whatever!).
@HEY, congrats & wish you a lot of money, because it matters, What a!!! i love how you paint on the street in front of people, & its something id like to do but i have some sort of panic scene... Wow! You got a lot of public there : )
@pupato street performances are fun & busy when the weather co-operates. I don't do that very much any more though I really miss it. Money matters but mostly I like the way the article explains my motivations for working as a street artist, something I've been criticized for in the past (which I guess doesn't really matter).
