Elephant Town Chapter 10 (pages 10-12)
Paul isn't really a "participation" guy, but...I'm sorry, did I say Paul? I meant Matthew.
Elephant Town Chapter 10 (pages 6-9)
You can choose alligators, or crocodiles, those are your only options.Edit: WOOPS, I meant to schedule this post for tomorrow!! Ah well, enjoy an early Elephant Town! Daylight saving's confusing everyone today anyway. ;)Boy I went down a rabbit hole when I searched for "stop sweating surgery."YES, there are natural ways to help yourself stop sweating (and safe meds - beta blockers have been my godsend while teaching). But incels have ...
Elephant Town Chapter 10 (pages 4-5)
WELL HOW ELSE DO YOU GET SOMEONE'S ATTENTION.I guess Paul's pretty well known as a Person To Avoid in the office. Woof. Sorry, buddy.
Elephant Town Chapter 10 (pages 1-3)
ELEPHANT TOWN IS BACK DID YOU MISS PAULBuddy it's the *employee* break room, come on.So I know Paul's not the fan favorite, but this chapter will feature some of the first few pages of dialogue I wrote for him, and it still tickles me, so I hope you like it. :)PS, thanks to everyone who voted the other day, homegirl here is officially named Mallory!
Hourly Comic Day!
Hourly Comic Day was on Monday! It's always on the first of February.I don't know if I've ever gotten HCD all done in the same day; there's no real "rule," you're just chronicling a day's worth of awake hours in comics form. (Then again, there are no rules to begin with. It's just a fun drawing challenge that I happen to love.)The real bitch is if your waking hours happen to be... many many hours long, as mine ...
Nervous Wreck
Happy Nerve Year!! I hope yours was as good as or better than mine! (Reading books on the couch with Luke is one of my favorite things, so I mean that in the best way. <3 )Pre-travel nerves runs in the family. My grandmother isn't in any of my dad's childhood vacation stories, because she'd get herself so wound up with worry before the trip that she'd just end up staying home sick.I got my Grandma's stomach, so you can imagine...
Elephant Town Chapter 9 (pages 11-13)
Where are my freelancers at because I KNOW you know this feeling.This concludes chapter 9... I think!! I have a little bit extra that I can't decide if it should be tagged it to the end of this chapter, or if I should hold on to it. If I add it to this chapter, you'll see it in two weeks because guess who put off all her gift-buying until this week??If I make any gifts by hand (the curse of being an artist with loved ones), I'll show ...
Elephant Town Chapter 9 (pages 9 & 10)
I couldn't decide if this needed a NSFW disclaimer. If your coworker looks over your shoulder, tell them it's a story about gymnasts.And you're welcome for not sharing the photo ref with you. (Luke's a good sport!)
Elephant Town Chapter 9 (pages 7 & 8)
List of pacifiers for Kris thus far: wine, someone else doing the dishes, sexy dream men with bogo cats, and autofellatio videos.
Elephant Town Chapter 9 (pages 5-6)
Finally, Kris has reached Hazel level. I feel seen again.(I can't be the only person who's gotten into plow pose and wondered "could I?")And in case you're not familiar with the Kinsey scale, here, knock yourself out!Chapter 9, pages 1 & 2Chapter 9, pages 3 & 4

(in continuation of the "where do you put your boobs in pigeon pose?"...)Elephant Town: a Celebration of the Mundane!(Am I the only one changes the emphasis on compliments and lets them go straight to my head?)
Little personal things.
I'm about to send out a newsletter - the first newsletter in a YEAR ?!?! - and if I added all the little personal things I wanted to add, it would be too long for a newsletter. They're not even that personal, just things I want to share with you, mostly images, which would also make the newsletter heavy (and it's already heavy).So I thought I'd make a public post here with all the images, and link it from the newsletter. (If you&#...
ELEPHANT TOWN!! (<-- all caps because it's been A MINUTE) Chapter 9
Hello hello, the next chapter has begun!! There won't be an update next week because of the studio tour I'm part of this coming weekend, but I couldn't wait any longer to start the comic back up. I missed Kris!! Partially because I'm living vicariously through Kris in that last panel. What secret compartment are you supposed to slide your boobs into in pigeon pose, I'll never know.The Elephant Town website is still edging towa...
48HCW comic take 2, with a lil commentary <3
Happy Tuesday! Apparently Android users weren't able to view all the pages I posted yesterday in the gallery format, so here's an inline version of that 48-hour comic I did, with a little bonus commentary since it's easy to comment below each image here. :)(That's the apartment Kris and I lived in in college.)I had this little daydream when a gnat got stuck in my eye last week. Pretty sure gnats are just looking for hydration, but...
A 24-page comic in 48 hours!
48 Hour Comics Weekend was this past weekend, and I successfully completed 24 pages at 11:58 last night! I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty proud of myself. :)Since it'll be a few weeks before Elephant Town starts back up, here's the whole comic! It's an amalgam of day dreams and night dreams I've had over the past 10 days or so. Hope you like it!I'll post some behind-the-scenes stuff for my $5+ tier if I get the chance!Not...
48 Hour Comics Weekend! Little promotion to share. :)
I spent last night drawing up a little 48HCW promotion to get people onboard. (Including Pip and Ollie, of course.) Promoting this is somewhat selfish of me, as I feed off the excitement of having a bunch of people doing the same tough project I'm doing. ;)Here's the Instagram post and the Twitter post in case you wanna RT/share!24 pages in 48 hours can mean anything, by the way; I'm hearing from cartoonists who wanna color 24 pages, ...
WHAT IS DANIELLE DOING?? (website, studio tour, 48-Hour Comic Day, Halloween, etc etc)
As I mentioned, I'll be taking the next few weeks off Elephant Town updates! It might be a whole month, but I doubt that.At this point you probably know me well enough to know that the LAST thing I want is for anyone to feel taken advantage of, so if you treat Patreon more like a monthly subscription service for my comics, and you want to lower your pledge to just "follow" (so you won't be charged for October, and you can easily g...
No Elephant Town today! Instead, enjoy this terrible 24 Hour Comic I made in 2004.
Good morning! (And good evening, you night owls/people on the west coast!)As I mentioned last week, I'll be taking the next few weeks off from Elephant Town updates. I'll make a post to explain all of that later today.But first, since I know y'all love a Monday comic update, I'm sharing this entirely embarrassing 24-page comic that I made when I was 23 that I didn't know I still had on my hard drive (and was hoping I'd los...
Elephant Town, end of Chapter 8
One last page to wrap up this eighth chapter. (Does anyone else hear a song verbatim in their head, and even though you can't quite make out the lyrics, you swear if someone pulled what you were hearing out of your head, it would be exactly like the original?)I'll be taking a break from Elephant Town updates for a few weeks! I'll explain more soon. :)
Intern Webomic! My Girlfriend Doesn't Moan
Hey comic-lovers! You may recall that I had two remote interns in the spring, both from The Animation Workshop, aka the Danish school I teach at occasionally.One of them just started sharing the first few pages of her NSFW webcomic, My Girlfriend Doesn't Moan, on her personal Patreon. You may remember that she teased the story here back in April. You all were so supportive of & interested in both interns' comics, I wanted to make sure you...
Elephant Town Chapter 8 (pages 29 & 30)
Must be something really inviting about that chair, too. :)
Elephant Town Chapter 8 (pages 27 & 28)
Something about Miranda's apartment makes everyone wanna just invite themselves in.We have a lot of stray cats in town and I like to wonder how different their lives are with each person who lets them into their world for a little while.
Elephant Town Chapter 8 (pages 25-26)
But like, HER bathroom.Thanks for your patience with these two pages! I got about a third of the way into coloring every person in the crowd before I realized I was just gonna wash them all out with colored light. Ah well, I think you can still tell I put in some time. Still, that took forever. NO MORE PARTIES IN ELEPHANT TOWN, and I think Miranda would agree!
Max Capacity
I don't think I need to explain why this week's update will be another late Monday night one.Miranda GET YOUR ASS OUT OF THIS PARTY I can't color this many people every week!!
Elephant Town Chapter 8 (pages 23-24)
Remember when your first friends started getting married, and how bonkers crazy it seemed at the time? I was thinking a lot about that when I started thinking about Berto & Meighan.Thanks for your patience with these two pages! I can't tell you how nice it was to go straight to bed after the long drive home from the beach last night, instead of hustling to finish coloring late into the night. I don't miss that about the GWS schedule!To sh...
Monday Spaceholder: closeups of Elephant Town artwork
If you're reading this the moment it goes up, I've probably just gotten home from my final planned visit with loved ones this year, a weekend away with some of my oldest friends in comics, at a quiet little beach in New Jersey.Between the beach and Luke's birthday on Friday, I knew this would have to be an actual Monday update (instead of my usual Sunday night goal). So I scheduled a little post to share in the meantime, so that you h...
Make SH!T Mondays livestream tonight 8-10!
Last post for the day! I'll be joining my old friend Ramón Pérez and his studiomate/bro Eric Vedder for their Monday night livestream show, Make SH!T Mondays! We'll be here from 8-10 pm eastern, drawing & talking, and either of these direct links should work:via Facebookvia YouTubeI can't talk and draw a new piece at the same time very well, so I'll be doing a trial run of making the Elephant Town banner into a watercolor. I pri...
Elephant Town Chapter 8 (pages 21-22)
THANK THEE LORD SHE FOUND THEE MUSICI posted the English translation for all patrons, in case you're interested. :)Thank you again to Kier for the assist on my lazy Google Translate hack job, and for improving it, as always!
Elephant Town Chapter 8 (pages 19-20)
These pages are making me wanna swap out all my light bulbs for vibrantly colored ones that turn my friends hot pink.
No comic this week!
I did take a *tiny* vacation to Thomas, West Virginia earlier this week, but for the most part I've actually been cleaning and preparing my house for two very special friends you probably already know. They're coming Monday night and I am STOKED and my house has not been clean since the end of 2019 so it's been... a project. It'll be worth it.I'll probably make a little "middle-aged woman and her cats" comic for you pa...
