In the past few weeks, I've started making drawings with ink washes, following up with other details in pen and pencil. If you'd like to see more, I just posted a bunch of this new stuff on my website.
“The Book Show” is an exhibition of graphic novels, comics, and children’s books by students in the School of Visual Arts' MFA as Visual Essay department, curated by Marshall Arisman and Carl Nicholas Titolo. Books in the show include Alphabetic Ballyhoos by Anna Raff, which is a fresh take on both the conventional ABC book and medieval illuminated manuscripts; Edwin Vazquez's War Story, which illustrates his father’s experiences during the Vietnam War; Joanna Neborsky’s Shmo, a book the author describes as "a guide to the great unknowns"; Sybille Schenker's The Way Things Run, a story inspired by marathon running; and Rich Tu’s Crispy Kid, the tale of a nine-year-old burn victim.
"The Book Show" runs from November 21 to December 13, with a reception on November 25 from 6 to 8 pm at the Visual Arts Gallery, 601 West 26th Street, 15th Floor, New York City. (Closed from Wednesday, November 26 through Sunday, November 30, for the Thanksgiving holiday.)
