Summary

Working directly in pen and ink, watercolour and white-out whenever he makes a mistake, Ware has cannily edited out all legally sensitive and personally incriminating material from his private journals. Included are Ware's frustrated doodles for his book covers, angry personal assaults on friends, half-finished comic strips, lengthy and tiresome fulminations of personal disappointments both social and sexual. This pleasant and colourful sketchbook reading experience is a necessary volume for fans of fine art, water-based media and personal diatribe.

Author Biography

Chris Ware is the author of Jimmy Corrigan–the Smartest Kid on Earth, which received the Guardian First Book Award and was featured in the Whitney Biennial.

Ware was born in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1967 and currently lives in the Chicago area with his wife, Marnie, and their daughter, Clara.
