Wow another really interesting looking page that just begs you to look at it. Great techniques used and eerie imagary to look at. Does this book have any dialogue or is it only visual?

Great question. Her work typically doesn't have any dialogue or at least I haven't read any stories by her that have dialogue. In that way, her work depends a lot on how the reader interprets the imagery 🤷🏼‍♂️

Wow - this is an intense sequence,  Never have seen the work of this artist before, but the dot hatching is -super- impressive, offering a very unique and -very- raw flavor to this obviously incredibly personal work.  Really love the styrofoam heads of the first two panels, and how the dot hatching captures the candle flame.  Much more often than not, I always see something new when I visit your gallery, Mark!  You have a great eye and fearless sense of exploration in your art choices.  This is really compelling work - thank you for sharing!

Just received the new book in the mail and have so much respect for what JWS is doing. The art style is so unique and impressive, but it also takes a lot of courage and heart to release a book like it.
