otts at workI took a workshop with #GarethBrookes when he visited for #ShortRun this year. Lovely man, makes stunning comics with #embroidery, #pyrography (with a soldering iron), and other unusual means. They let us take home supplies and Gareth was very encouraging about us using embroidery in our own #comics. I love when artists are open and generous with sharing their skills. Images from “The Dancing Plague” and “Threadbare”.

"If The Marks Are Perfect, How Can You Relate To Them?": An Interview with Gareth Brookes - The Comics Journal
Gareth Brookes may be responsible for the first comic about historical medieval plagues that was inspired by a real life Drake related Tik Tok craze, and if he's not, he's certainly responsible for the first one to be made utilizing pyrography. Joe Decie catches up with the cartoonist about why Brookes keeps attacking the page...and whether he can even stop himself at this point.
