I love the simple compositions in this comic. I just slapped everything on the page that needed to be there, and it works fine. When I went through this story doing the tiny fixes, I wished I could still draw like this, unencumbered by the need for everything to be “correct”, as if I’m competing with the star names of art. I couldn’t draw a page like this now. Somewhere along the way, the rules in my head changed, and arguably not for the better.
