Phil Machi is a cartoonist and entertainer. In the comics community, he is best known for his strip "Retail Sunshine" and has recently released the latest entry into that series called "Orientation" featuring the characters from that series! He has been making comics since 1996 when he first introduced his long-running series "Livestock" to the world. Since then, his company of the same name, Livestock Productions has been the umbrella for numerous projects like the "Peter Meadowdale" comedies, "The Phil Show!" and most recently the pop-culture podcast "Nate Has an Hour to Phil." His works feature original characters and stories in a variety of mediums. This is due to his many interests in all things entertainment and continues to be a signature mark of Livestock Productions. I have always been inspired by the animal kingdom from great to small. Much of my work is comedic in nature and this comes from my love and appreciation of humor. Facial expressions and emotions also inspire me to create and often collide with my love of animals. My artistic influences range from the zany sketches of Tim Burton to the witty and sassy cartoons of Berkeley Breathed.
