Comic books...

So, I've started on the comic books called Fables. (I know I am a bit behind). I first heard of this from a graphic novels course I took in college. I also adore James Jean, who does a lot of the cover work for Fables.

After reading Maus I and II and Persepolis in the class; I knew I wanted to write a graphic novel memoir. Here is my final project from the class, it's not the start of my memoir. We had to create a comic book. Mine is quite silly but oh well. Mind you, this was done in 2007 or 2008 (and I rushed this project).

Crochet coral reef

When I feel like the world is crashing down on me, like I have no where to go...no escape; I hide here. My crocheted underwater world. It's so peaceful and serene here. I've always been fascinated with sea life.

Trust me, I will be crocheting a lot more of these. How can I not? It's about 8" x 12", give or take some. I am actually crocheting a tiny coral reef scene to make a necklace. Can't wait to finish it. These photos are kinda sloppy, I apologize, I just wanted to put some images up.
