Alice in New York

“Alice in New York” is a graphic novel that incorporates a complex creative process, including a great deal of research, in order to create a seamless narrative. In the best tradition of bande dessinée, in the spirit of the original intent of graphic novels, I believe that the most compelling work will ideally come from one creator. With one person internalizing all the various elements, the results can be profound. Like a method actor, I immerse myself in my subject. “Alice in New York” is a work that I am very proud of. I fully appreciate all the inner workings involved with the creation of a graphic novel. Ideally, I believe that such a work is best kept to around 100 to 200 pages. It is meant to be enjoyed on a comute or in one sitting. It is the distillation of a great deal of information. A creator honors the subject by not belaboring it. The end result is there for the reader to enjoy, to be entertained, informed, and inspired.
