Blue sky landscape by Briana Loewinsohn

      Briana Loewinsohn is the author of the Fantagraphics graphic novel Ephemera: a Memoir. I bought the book at Flying Colors Comics at a joint signing with Gene Yang and Thien Pham, but Briana was ill. At the second Cape and Cowl Con, Thien called out to me and introduced me to Briana. She offered small packets of sketchcards marked Bits and Pieces. A great deal of Ephemera takes place in a garden and this landscape with trees and a blue sky reflects natural beauty.
