Answer Jar


 What is all this stuff? I try not to think about it before I draw. Often I start drawing whatever comes into my mind--- sometimes I'm sitting in my parked car and I draw what I see out the window. I love to draw when I'm in ferry lines. I take the ferry a lot to visit my parents. I like drawing what's in my rearview mirror. It's often easier to draw what's in a mirror, I think it flattens the image in a way that makes it less overwhelming to take on, plus, in a rearview mirror, its just a tiny chunk of the world. I try to draw what brings me pleasure. Lots of hats. This one came from a dream, which is more rare for me these days, but the dream just wouldn't let go. Anyway, I'm wondering if all these strips will eventually add up to anything. So far, I've had that experience twice, where a series of strips started to reveal a narrative, or maybe an implied narrative. I made those groupings into minicomics.
