 Not actually a double page spread, as you can tell from the numbering, but two recent pages. Both took a fair bit of time! But I really wanted to show the difference Holding is expressing between the constrained and formal hotel and the freedom of the outdoors.

 Holding's very strong view that camping is better than staying in hotels in every way - financially of course, but also for health, freedom, and enjoyment - is about to be elaborated upon. Over the next several pages he explains the reasons in great detail, including how he stays dry and has a very pleasant time even in the rain.
Sign up to my newsletter to see latest pages as they're finished, and some of the background story on making these pages.   Not quite as straightforward as one would hope for.
And, a pretty odd thing to do from our perspective! I do love their socio-political discussion, followed by admission of total ignorance! [For further detail and fascinating info about research etc behind these pages, do join my short monthly mailout - see homepage for sign-up.]  Here and there throughout Holding's book he has included little illustrations, sometimes quite sketchy but this one has lovely detail. I can't find any info about the artist, unfortunately; the drawing seems to be signed Scott Calder I think...
I may have to re-letter both these pages. It's been quite cold in my studio and has affected my ability to write neatly! |
What's this all about??I'm making a true-story graphic novel called Archives
