Naughty Bits #35
"Notes #35" offers a poignant, visually rich portrait of a Spanish Surrealist painter’s life, tracing his exile from Spain after the Civil War through his years in Paris under Nazi occupation and his eventual flight to Mexico. Written and drawn by Roberta Gregory, the story unfolds with intimate detail and includes her hand-drawn reproductions of the painter’s imagined works, rendered in delicate pencil. The cover, also by Gregory, complements the introspective tone with a stark, expressive sketch.
