My name is Chris Ruggia.
About Me
I live in Alpine, Texas. I have fun making pictures and I try to make pictures that are fun to look at. Many of them are inspired by the animals of the Big Bend region of Texas.
About My Comics
A while back I created a series of comic books about our local desert animals called Jack: Adventures in Texas’ Big Bend. The comics are available for sale online as well as at Front Street Books in Alpine and at the Chihuahuan Desert Nature Center.
Other Activities
I also run a design and marketing studio (Vast Graphics) with my wife, Ellen and serve the City of Alpine as their Director of Tourism.
Ellen and I sometimes write songs and I play lead guitar for a local Alpine band, The Swifts.
