I don’t usually venture into the world of chapbook fabrication outside of the Dusie kollektiv, but I took a few weeks to make Paul a chapbook for Christmas. I sketched these critters over and over until they mildly resembled animals.

Julia talked more about her boobs in one day than in her whole life. Mom was like a chicken sans head, but cooked one of her better [...]
