The Negative Space logo, combined with my comic book logo. These are scripts to provoke violent thought.
The Walkerville Weekly Reader seal is the hobo symbol for “Man with a Gun”. Because the Internet is the gun of the information age.
The logo for Mimsy Were the Borogoves is obviously inspired by Magritte’s Self-Portrait; I originally created it for Nobody for President, but decided it was perfect for Mimsy once I separated it out into its own blog.
When I decided that Negative Space would be the name for the entire site, I needed a new logo for Cerebus the Gopher. I went with something obviously four-color comic, with a bit of 3D added because that’s the way we roll in the twenty-first century.
When I mentioned to a friend that I wanted a logo for Negative Space that played off of the vase/face image from psychology textbooks, she quickly sketched this vase as a joke. It is awesome, and I immediately recognized that it was perfect for Negative Space.
In the old days, ads used to show up as a banner across the top of pages. So I made a few fake banners for Negative Space. This is my favorite.

Failure to use tax money to finance things not liked by the taxpaying public is routinely called ‘censorship.’ If such terminology were used consistently, virtually all of life would be just one long, unending censorship, as individuals choose whether to buy apples instead of oranges, vacations rather than violins, furniture rather than mutual funds. But of course no such consistency is intended. This strained use of the word ‘censorship’ appears only selectively, to describe public choices and values at variance with the choices and values of the anointed. — Thomas Sowell (The Vision of the Anointed•)
