Alexa James

Alexa made a lot of cute animal comics, which I am not predisposed to love.  But she worked really hard figuring out the nuances of cuteness, and in the meantime, became a really good designer.  The simplicity of adorableness is hard to achieve--one bad line and you move to cloying or saccharin.   But Alexa avoids all of this...check out her map project from the end of the semester! I have a feeling that Alexa will get a lot of children's book illustration work.  Good for her in advance.  Cha-ching!

My Old Neighborhood...

I was just thinking about where I used to live the other day.  We lived in an old warehouse, up on the fourth floor. There was a door that opened out to nothing.  Some nights we'd open it and watch the car insurance fires raging three feet high or the prostitution van with the Hasidic johns , or the packs of wild dogs, if you stayed up late enough.  I made this comic when I lived there, 11 years ago.  Now I think there's a heath food store around the corner.

SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH MY KEYBOARD.  THE ALL CAPS KEY IS STUCK.  HERE IS A FILM I MADE DURING IRENE AT 4:30 AM.
