O, Sky Egg!
Hey pals!I am happy to say that this is False Knees comic number 400! I've got a feeling that the 400s will have some good ones.Also! Mélodie and I have been working long hours (mostly Mélodie) to put together a new False Knees store, and it is up and running as of today! Here's a link: ht...
Strong Lady
I felt like a different style today! I've recently been trying to use up some art supplies that I've been holding on to for years. Most notable has been a stack of old tracing paper that I discovered works pretty well with india ink! So I have been pencil sketching on regular paper and then ...
Volume 4
Back to some quick comics this week! Mélodie chose some prompt words and gave them to me one at a time. I gave myself six minutes to think of and draw each one.Would you like to see any as a fully-coloured comic? From this session or any previous? Let me know what you think!
Birdsafe
Hey pals! A bit of a different comic this week! I made this working with Bird Safe Guelph to help spread some information about birds and window collisions. - the issue: between 16 and 42 million birds die from fatal window collisions each year in Canada- the solution: retrofitting windows is an eas...
The Honkening (Patreon exclusive comic)
Hey pals! This comic is based on this character I saw from my house. I jumped outside immediately to take some photos of our new ruler.I hope you all are having a great night!- Joshua

It's getting muddy out there my friends
6-minute comics vol. 3
I hung out with some comics buds this past week and did another 6-minute comic session, this time hosted by Sven (check out Sven's comics here). I haven't had much time to make art recently because Mélodie and I are trying to finish a lot of house projects that we've been putting off fo...
Six minute comics
Thank you for your prompts last Sunday! It was difficult to not look at everybody's comments all week, but I didn't peek! Mélodie helped me out by picking the words, and I gave myself six minute timers for each one. I allowed myself access to the folder of reference pictures I have on my co...
Stronger Together
I had so much fun making the first "stronger together" comic a couple weeks ago that I redid it with even more detail!Here's a photo of the full sheet with the pencil I used to draw it:
Gouache sunset & some 6-minute comics
A few evenings ago I saw the setting light catch the top of a hill, making a gorgeous grouping of colours–so I felt compelled to try to capture it in paint. I may end up using this colour palette in a comic.6-minute comics These four comics were made in six minutes with the one-word prompt in the ...
Inner Jungle
I've been meaning to do a comic about these finches I saw in a local butterfly conservatory for about 2 years now. I didn't really know what the subject was until I started drawing this one last week. A good example of how life will seep into comics.
Stronger Together
Happy ❤️day! I was originally going to draw this using people (Mélodie and me) but thought it would be more fun with crows! I like the way it turned out, so I was thinking I might make it into a full-fledged False Knees comic later on. Mélodie has started doing a lot of backstage work for Fals...
Hair of the dog
I came up with this comic this morning while hanging out (digitally) and playing with some other cartoonist pals. The original that I made with the prompt 'beer' and six minutes is below! It was a great way to get ideas out quickly. And when you're forced to do things quickly, you get ri...
Hourly Comic Day 2021 (part 1)
Today was hourly comic day, a day some cartoonists challenge themselves to draw a comic for every hour that they are awake. I didn't do that, haha. I made an effort to make as many comics as I could today, and here is the result of that! I think I'll try to do some more as the week goes on. ...
Remember
*UPDATED the comic so that it actually sort of makes sense now!Good evening! And welcome to all the newcomers!This comic is an example of one that changed several times through the process of making it. It went through a few iterations of existentialism and silly jokes before I landed on the final w...

Caxi has an extensive mental catalog of smells. I try to help her with new entries. This one was for raclette.
Bird feeder brunch
I just set up my first bird feeder a few days ago and got my first visitors today! Chickadees and juncos galore! I hope they all remember to come back tomorrow.
Antomic Science
Gasp!
Volume
And here's this week's comic which I'm sharing everywhere! I hope you all have a great weekend!
Daydream
I've been seeing some tree sparrows around recently so I really wanted to paint some! They are adorable and so so small. Has anyone got a favourite backyard bird these days?
Holiday Watercolours
Here are a few small watercolours I painted over the past couple days. It is very much winter in southern Ontario! Perfectly timed snowfall turned a green (brown) Xmas eve into a white one! Happy new year! I'm so grateful for this little community. I'm returning to comics next week and looki...
Little Gift
I hope everyone who has time off this next week has a relaxing break! I'm sure we could all use it. ❤️- Joshua
That's the good stuff
that's what I'm here for
First Snow
When I sit down to make a comic, my first instinct is to draw an animal being quiet in nature, because I enjoy being quiet in nature. I wonder if my local city birds yearn for more quiet. A few weeks ago there was a heavy overnight snowfall which left the street feeling calmer and more intimate. I k...
