Profile Information

About Me:

I produce community arts projects for a living(grant writing, that kind of jazz), co-curated an exhibition in 2004 about Australian alternative comics with Leigh Rigozzi which toured to 4 Australian states, and make comics/zines with very small print runs because i'm shy when it comes to my own work.

I'm not very familiar with beckett, but these simple character interaction comics I'm doing at the moment have grown out of some theatre workshops I've been attending on an off, so it's reassuring that the theatrical feeling is coming through.

I'm glad my comments on your work were helpful. What is it with narrative that makes it so scary?

meant to thnk you for your comments on mine too as they were energising. Indira keeps telling me there is a 'story' to my stuff, when i get down on myself about it. Nice to hear how someone else reads it.

At 4:15pm on November 25, 2007, Sarah Howell said…: Yeah, that's me. Glad to have context now.

I'm enjoying having somewhere central to keep up with comic folk again. Three cheers for John.

Ah miss ur sage reassurance!

At 12:28pm on November 20, 2007, Sarah Howell said…: I was thinking along those lines when I sent out a few more invites.

At 12:16pm on November 20, 2007, John Weeks said…: Hmm...we have enough people for a Tassie comickers group... I'm thinking of getting a Portland comics one going (used to live there).

At 10:51am on October 19, 2007, Sarah Howell said…: I only have the first book in the Kampung Boy series, but i love it for its gentle humor and beautiful artwork and respect it greatly for the fact that it is a story that takes place in a rural setting, so few comics do that, well so few stories fullstop, no matter the medium.

Thanks for that Andrei, I'll check those out. I saw 'Fistful' in Minotaur and assumed it was made in Melbourne - it looked good anyway.

Andrei Buters commented on John Weeks's group 'Melbourne Comics'

'Fistful of Comics' has been going pretty hard for a while now but I don't think they're Melbourne based. Maybe 'Yuck!' ? Tango is a bit more professional than a zine. I'd ask the friendly clerks at sticky because a lot of the mixed contribution zin…

The Dark Side of the 'Toon

IN HIS weekly Pub Strip, Melbourne cartoonist Fred Negro has chronicled the history of St Kilda's pub culture for the past 20 years. As the suburb has changed, so has the satirical strip, which runs in the free street-press paper Inpress. But somehow Pub Strip has lurched its way to a significant milestone, its 1000th instalment, despite often featuring in the same panel Dostoevsky and a perambulating penis.
