WHAT ON EARTH?
Are you looking for a comic blog that deals with important and timely topics? //
A blog with a long-running, well-written plot… //
…and dialogue as good as William Shakespeare’s? //
A blog where the art is always done with skill and care? //
”If you are, keep on looking.” //
”This ain’t that kind of a blog.”
In time blog a part-time employed biologist wonders about the world… //
…laughs at thins other people say… //
…occasionally manages to get herself to work… //
…fools around with her friends… //
…sometimes makes ’real’ art … //
…and quite often just dreams about far-away galaxies and final frontiers.
”Welcome the the comic blog Gaiverruksia!” //
”I am Kati. A biologist, camp leader, nerd, comic artist, zoo guide. And the keeper and main character of this blog.” //
This blog was created in the autumn of 2015 when I moved to Scotland as a study abroad student. ”Originally, Gaiverruksia was my ’official exchange blog’. But I kept keeping it after my time in Scotland was over.” //
”Most of the content of this blog is small comics about what happens in my life. They are mostly more or less what really happened.” //
Sometimes I post alphabetized ’month challenges’. ”They are usually really nerdy.” //
I also like drawing challenges. ”Such as animal mash-ups. And Inktober.” //
And occasionally I make ’real’ art with time and effort. ”After all, I did go to art school for 15 years as a hobby. And I do like to draw and paint. I also make some commission comics, for example.” //
”But I’m not the only character in this blog! Below are some who appear somewhat often:”
