Description

I'm a big fan of Craig Thompson's work, but never see his original published work. I found this drawing on eBay. It's actually drawn on a printed bookplate (the borders are printed) and laid into a first edition copy of Blankets. It really captures Thompson's approach well, and pictures two of the main characters from the book: himself and Raina. I do love that brush work of his and can't argue with the inscription.
