#AntarcticLog comics: 

For a one-comic story, often I will respond to a good idea by making a comic on my own, and I welcome suggestions.  

No charge: ideas that come to me from others that I decide to make into one 6 x 6” comic. 

 

$500: Small comic. 6 x 6” comic. Note that under my creative commons agreement we both have the right to use this.  Note that this is a smaller comic that is created at 6 x6” and may be blown up to any size up to 12” x 12”.

$2000/week: Embedded comic artist*, accompanying you into the field or shipboard, producing two small comics or one medium comic in a week.  All travel and lodging should also be covered, preferably up front, and at federal rates for locations.  Negotiable depending on your needs, duration, location, etc. Let’s talk. This is my very favorite thing to do.  Often such work will result in a giant comic or other large illustration based on this experience. See thumbnails of Bigelow comics. 

​

* Note that the role of artist-in-the-field is usually accompanied by the role of outreach officer, communications fellow, or the like.  I am adept at hosting on-camera and on-mic broadcasts and video conferences, including updating information, interviewing scientists, science support personnel, ROV pilots, students, et al, and relish the opportunity to work in the field in a dual role of communicator and artist.
