I redid and upgraded this comic, one of the few I made for Buff n Blue, Gallaudet University’s newspaper, when I was maybe 20 years old. 😆 That was pretty much the style of comics I did starting in high school. I mostly kept comics to myself, maybe sharing with a few family and friends. Then in 2012, I got a fancy upgrade to my comic making- an ipad with a drawing app! Carodoodles was born, and the rest is history! 

BTW! I’ll be nothing at the Ontario Cultural Society of the Deaf (OCSD)’s arts & culture festival in Belleville, Ontario on September 18th. More info at Ontario Cultural Society of the Deaf

Here’s a little different perspective for you all! We Deafies usually do not view our hearing loss as something ‘broken’. I still remember reading a fictional story in which a hearing author had their Deaf character cut the ears off dolls’ to make them “Deaf like me.” I remember thinking to myself, “Why?? I still do need my ears for other things!” Ha.

This legit happened to me. Made me feel my age, literally, and gave me all the feels, fr IYKYK. 😅 At least we got our “A/S/L”, WASSUP, POS or PWOMS, etc

(Millenial to normal language translation:
It made me feel old and that made me feel emotions for real / literally. IYKYK = If you know, you know. A/S/L = Age, S*x, and Location. WASSUP = what’s up. POS = Parents over shoulder / PWOMS = Parents watching over my shoulder.)

This happens all the time. It’s ok, people are learning. But I hope more will learn so we Deafies don’t need to explain it again and again and again and again… (especially since time with doctors is already limited! 🙃)

You can help by encouraging people to quickly research how to work with sign language interpreters and us Deaf people before appointments with us. There are tons of awesome resources out there. After all, knowledge is power! 😄

This idea came to me when I searched online for “sign” but accidentally left out “language,” and got results for signs—boards, posters, signage, etc. 😜

That receptionist is technically not wrong... but very wrong! 😆

Here are some very silly ideas that to make our deafness visible. :P

tbh, I’m tempted to make DE AF2 shirts… should I?

These ideas came to me since I don’t have hearing aids / cochlear implants. (Even for those who do, sometimes it’s hidden or hard to see) People constantly assume that we all are hearing or abled bodied. Even though I make this as a joke, there are days when I’m tempted to plaster ‘DEAF’ all over me to avoid being at greater risk of getting hit from behind by fast cyclists, scooters, or motorbikes. 🙃

Comic titled “Ways to make Deafness visible.” All characters pose fashionably in each panel.

Panel 1: A person wears a black shirt that reads DE on the first line, and AF on the second, a superscript 2 next to "AF," forming "DEAF²" (a play on "DEAF AF").

Panel 2: A person holds a sign reading "DEAF" with downward-pointing arrows. Their leg features the Deaf Power symbol, written as "

I had so much fun telling this joke at my brother’s wedding! 🤟🏼🪱

This is a twist on the classic ASL joke / story “Deaf King Kong”. You can see an example here: www.bit.ly/deafkingkong

Title: Dodo if your spouse is a worm?

Panel 1:
Drawing of me signing:
"Here’s a comic based on my speech at my brother’s wedding. I shared ASL-friendly advice for married and soon-to-be-married couples that I felt was important to share with all of you. So, listen carefully."

Panel 2:
"What to do if your spouse turns into a worm?! Advice for ASL users."
Drawing: A person poofs into a worm.

Panel 3:
"Please do hold your little worm and tell them how much you love them."
Drawing: A person holding the worm while signing ILY.

Panel 4:
"But never, ever hold them in your hand when you need to sign these words:"
Drawing: The person lets the worm off their hand onto the table.

Panel 5:
"MARRY / HUSBAND / WIFE / SPOUSE"
Drawing: a person asks, “"Why not?"

Panel 6:
"Because all these signs use this DANGEROUS motion:"
Drawing: All signs end with hands clapping together.]

For more than 25 years of my life, I lived with a total of 7 cats. That’s 77% of my life. I studied them carefully. I tried valiantly to capture their perfection in my drawings. It’s impossible. I’ve come to understand one thing: Cats are beyond our understanding.

🗳️ BTW- I’m updating my Patreon! I want to give you all more options on what you can get. I still am looking for ways to be more financially supported so I can create even more art!

So, poll time! You can select one or more things you want to continue see / want to be added to my patreon!

🔵A- Early access (1 week early)
⚪️B- Get a secret bonus panel (that won’t be posted on social media until much much much later)
🔵C- See my doodles / sketches
⚪️D- See my behind-the-scene work in progress (timelapase, doodles of ideas etc for each comic / artwork)
🔵E- Patreon shout outs at end of the comic (with your name or username listed!)

Other ideas? Leave comments or send me a private message!

Page 1 Panel 1: “Cats are hard to draw!” Image shows a paper with pencil drawings of two cats in convoluted positions. Both are on their backs with bellies up, one paw curled and another stretched out. Their heads look detached. Their bodies are twisted in opposite directions. The right cat’s tail is under their body, and their ears are hidden under their floofy tail. (also, that cat is a floofy cat who was shaven all over except for their paws, head, and tail.)

Panel 2:
The art teacher scolds Carlisle, pointing to the drawing, “These are NOT anatomically accurate.”

Panel 3: Carlisle is signing “but”, saying “But I used the reference photos!”

Page 2 Panel 1 and 2:
Carlisle holds up a phone, showing actual photos of both cats in convoluted positions. They are lying on blankets. The caption below reads “yep, these are actual pics of my cats."

Panel 3: The art teacher looks at the phone and is too stunned to say anything.
