About rent*space
rent*space is a periodical newsletter from me, independent comic creator Renton Hawkey.
It’s a companion reader to my comics projects, where I’ll post sneak peeks and behind-the-scenes stuff.
I’ll also post announcements about new projects, merch, or campaigns.
rent*space is completely free, and we no longer offer paid tiers. But if you want to financially support my work (and get more in return for it), check out some options below.
While I’ve got your attention, make sure to check out a few of the comics I’ve been working on, and subscribe:
If you want to show your support for me an independent comic creator financially, you can grab a print from INPRNT, or some digital comics or art books from Gumroad.
Lastly, let’s make sure we connect on social. Check out my Linktree here, and follow whatever you like (I’m usually found here on Substack, but I do pop in to Instagram now and again).
Finally, thank you for your support, and I hope you enjoy my work!
Artist’s statement
Here are my principles as an artist. I try to practice them every day.
Work for your own pleasure
Accept that art is transactional
Don’t talk about your intent
Stay smaller than the work
Draw every day
