George Rex Comics mini-documentary

Hello friends!

So I know I promised you a post about my manuscript editing process this week, but I'm still working on it and I'd like it to be the best it can be. So in the meantime I would really like to share with you a pretty rad little documentary. Some film students recently asked me to be the subject of a mini-doco and this is the result. I think the guys that made it (see credits at the end for a full list of those wonderful people) did a great job at reining in my tendency to blather when I talk about comics (I just get so darned excited). 

Anyway, I'll let you just enjoy and watch. 

That's all for this week, guys. I hope you liked the vid (I was really chuffed to be a part of it). 

Next week, I promise a post about editing. I'm really excited to share that process with you because I want to make Oh Brother the best book I can, and I think the process of nutting out the problems in my book with other humans really helps me get towards that great book.

Have a sweet rest of the week. May your skies be mildly cloudy so you have interesting things to look at above you.

Gxx

Artist Spotlight on... me?

A couple of weeks ago I was asked to be interviewed by the Adelaide University Art History Club for their artist spotlight blog. I was honoured to say the least. 

To say more than the least, even though it was just a series of fairly easy to answer lovely questions I was really struggling to get down in words what I wanted to stay. So I sat down and tackled it like the visual learner I am, in comic form! I found that the answers, originally stiff and dull and using too many words, just flowed from my pen. 

So for this week's post I have my comic interview response. It's a fairly simple comic but I was happy with how my creative process section turned out.

This interview was originally published on the Adelaide Art History Club blog, which you can find here. You should check out all their artist spotlights; there are some real interesting reads!

That's all for this week! See you next Tuesday!

Lovely Chats with Deb Tribe

Hey guys, this week, as well as my normal blog post (out every Tuesday), there's a little bonus content for your ears!

Last year in November, just after I was awarded the Colin Thiele Scholarship, just after I nervously spoke about my project to a crowd of lovely humans on the beautiful Carclew grounds and had just shook the hands of lots of rad women in arts, I ran off to the 891 ABC radio studios and was interviewed by the super Deb Tribe. Here's that interview!

And then a couple of weeks ago I did another update interview with the ever Lovely Deb Tribe (when she interviews me, I almost forget I have a huge microphone in front of my face) about working on my book and receiving the Colin Thiele Writing Scholarship. I hate listening to my voice but hopefully you don't mind it as much as I do. 

I hope you enjoyed me blathering on about comics. See you next week. xx
