—Gary Groth, from an interview on Comics Reporter.
I did some animation and titles design for this documentary, I Learn America. A bit of it is in the trailer (above.) I animated student drawings from the school and integrated it with my own drawings. It was a blast. I loved doing it.
The first animated porno, Buried Treasure, 1929.
Got copies of this in the mail!
Unclothed Man, episode 3 “Classes Continue.”
Another new one for April tour. I made 100 of these. It’s a little companion to 3 New Stories.
Gabrielle Bell is featured in the current (57th) issue of Bitch Magazine. It’s a really nice feature and a great interview. Here Gabrielle is asked about money:
One major focus of The Voyeurs is money and self-sufficiency, particularly the story in which you talk to aspiring cartoonists about how to make money. Is it important for women, or women artists, to have frank discussions about money?
I’m not sure if it is a major focus, but it is a focus. Money is a thing we’re not supposed to talk about , it works behind the scenes. But that works to the advantage of those who have more of it. Having had it and — more often the case — having not had much, I am very aware of what a major driving force in life it is. I think there are a lot of myths about money. For example, if you do what you love, it is pretty unlikely that the money will follow. And it DOES buy happiness!

Gabrielle’s so great.

Hey thanks Publishers Weekly and Paste Magazine for putting New School on your “anticipated books” lists! Its coming out in April.
Wow, what a genius I am in this Sundance Channel thing! Ha ha. I had a feeling I was blowing it while it was happening. Actually I’ve embarrassed myself much worse than this before… Well, whatev. I tumblr it.
The 2010 demo for the feature. Pretty much everything about the movie has changed since this. Ha ha ha. I fell like I’ve gotten a lot better since this too, but it still has some good parts! I wrote/directed. Drawings by Jane Samborski, Frank Santoro, and myself. Howard Gertler and John Cameron Mitchell produced. Music by James Lucido. Last minute production help from Ray Sohn. Special thanks to Sean Donnelly for lending us a camera!
