  1. This is a #comic I made for a fantastic #SAW class with Fionn McCabe back in February. I set a timer & gave myself 3-5 minutes per panel, inked on Post-it notes. I added color later digitally. It's so liberating to work on sticky notes! So much easier to just draw & not be all precious about it.

  10. #introductions I’m an #artist & #cartoonist working on a long-term book project #GraphicMemoir. My work has #memoir and #surrealism, makes use of comics’ talky-ness & symbolism. Comics are #interdisciplinary. I’ve taught #GraphicMemoir #QueerComics #WomensUndergroundComics #MakingComics as a lecturer at #SFSU. I earn a living as a #GraphicDesigner. Committed to multiplicity & complexity. Love the vast possibilities of play & storytelling with the comics medium.

  11. What was one of the the things-to-have when you were a kid? Did you have that thing? Or did you find a creative way to make do with something similar? How did that work out for you, and how did you feel about it, either way? I'd love to hear those stories, if you're willing to share!

    This memory comic is speed-sketched on the back of an index card. I have a little box of memory fragments like this so they're all in one place, in case any of them fit into something larger later on.
    So what was the thing-to-have way-back-when, and what was your relationship to it? I wanna know! ❤😺❤

  15. This is fascinating; this calls itself a "photo comic" and #GraphicMemoir told in photos, but comics scholars and librarians often argue whether a photographic narrative can be considered a comic. I'm still including this in my recommended list at Brodart, though

    This is a bit of comics journaling about visiting my Mom recently. It's just something I drew for myself, with no particular thought to sharing it. But I know a lot of you are slowly losing parents to dementia, or already have, so I'm posting it here for those of you who can relate.
    I wrote more about the challenges, & also the unexpected *gifts* of dementia here, if you're interested:
    patreon.com/posts/are-you-my-c
    I can't help but think of the book "Are You My Mother?" when my Mom asks if I'm her daughter. Here we are, she and I, navigating yet another role-reversal. But that dynamic is familiar territory for us.
    If you can't read my handwriting, I've transcribed all of it in the image description below.
