Seeing Things

Jim Woodring's charcoal drawings take the otherworldly qualities of his comics to a higher level of clarity and nuance. These crisply rendered images reflect his life-long obsession with hidden worlds and alternate realities. This book collects the most toothsome of these drawings and arranges them in four sections, Lazy Robinson', 'Frogs', 'The Visible World' and 'Portfolio in Colour'. This is a collection of echoless, glowing furniture to add to that already crowded storeroom which is briefly, but brilliantly, illuminated in this stately book.'
