The above doodles of mine appear in a FREE guide that you can download, all about how to be happier. If you would like a copy of "Simple Happiness" written by Irish happiness trainer Mark McManus, click right here! As I am off in literally one hour to a mindfulness retreat - the reminder to be compassionate is very timely. Happy Bank Holiday weekend! More doodles coming soon : - )
I was invited to produce a cartoon review for the Comix Creatrix exhibition, on this spring at The House of Illustration - a new(ish) museum space in London dedicated to comics and illustration. The exhibition showcased the work of 100 different female comic artists. I left feeling very inspired and with a long list of graphic novels that I want to read. I have read two wonderful ones this week alone, which I highly recommend. Can't We talk About Something More Pleasant - by Ros Chast - cartoonist for The New Yorker since 1978 and Audrey Niffenegger's The Night Bookmobile. If Audrey's name sounds familiar to you, that's because as well as being a visual artist she is also the bestselling author of The Time Traveller's Wife. If you have any graphic novel recommendations for me, be in touch! I am always appreciative of how many of them are stocked in London libraries. And as for my cartoon review.. it will be published in an academic journal about cartoons some months from now. Will make sure to post a link when that happens. Love and doodles, Sam x
