Fun Home Process

[susanstinson]

Alison Bechdel just posted a short video about her process in making her graphic memoir, Fun Home. What she shows is pretty fascinating and a lot more bodily (a lot more of a lot of different layers, actually) than I would have imagined, although one of things I always love about drawings is that they are -- among a bunch of other things -- traces of the experiences of the eyes and hands of the artist.

As a lot of you already know, there's an ljfeed to Alison's blog, which you can add if you want to follow on your friendslist whatever she's posting about, including, maybe, what's happening before the book comes out in June.

I'm itching to see it -- it'll be hard to wait.
