Just Do Coffee!
Just Do Coffee!
Join "Fillmore CoffeeCup" and his cast of animated coffee beverage friends in a hilarious collection of "Sunday newspaper comic" style strips.
Reminiscent of "Toy Story", these caffeinated cohorts quip and carouse in a small diner setting under the nose of a young Lisa The Barista who eventually realizes that they can actually talk! What's crazier are her attempts to try to tell someone about it, and of course, no one believes her!

My Why:
I've always loved drawing since I was 12 years old.
Once I tasted the joy of creating comic books as a working professional, it was a feeling like no other seeing people of all ages enjoying my stories and art.
For many years, my art has taken readers on adventures and even inspired them to strive to do better in their lives.
Now, I desire to make readers fall over laughing featuring the unlikeliest of characters...coffee products and utensils.
Did you know that these well known caffeinated drinks have colorful personalities and a LOT to say and do when they think no one's looking??
