it was amazing
bookshelves: all-time-favorites, comics

Absolutely gorgeous comic. Color schemes are low contrast, subtle, and so beautiful! has a print-making quality. The linework is organic but highly technical, mesmerizing. The style reminds me of Moebius, and yet stands out as different (the linework and mark-making being more organic as mentioned).

The story is centered around nature, and cycles of life including death and decay. Not too many words, which works well with the drawings and themes. The visuals do a lot of the heavy-lifting.

For anyone interested in the craft of drawing I highly recommend this. Even if the story isn't up your alley the sheer visual brilliance is worth checking out.

Probably one of my favorite contemporary artists. I hope she makes more comics!
