In my meandering path toward a better adulthood, I kept reading books but stopped thinking the theories found therein were going to answer the question of how to live in the world. I’ve come instead to the inelegant belief that pretty much the most important thing you can do with your day is make dinner, for your family or friends if you have them or for yourself if you don’t. Do that, and the other stuff mostly falls into place.

Outtake from Making Comics. This is an early format attempt. In the beginning I just like to start building pages and then try to figure out what they are trying to turn into. You can learn so much by copying frames of comics. These images were copied from the brilliant “Aya:Life in Yop City” by Marguerite Abouet and Clement Oubrerie @drawnandquarterly https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx3wEcQjfkI/?igshid=844ilui9md7n
