The Five Brothers And The Three Sisters

My favourite part of any project is developing and expressing character. I love how the drawn marks and the chosen words suddenly flip from being my work to being the characters themselves. And I really love when, usually at the end of a project, I realise who the characters where all along.

I’d been working with the Brothers and Sisters for several months, playing with their interests and positions within their worlds before I realised my Dad had four brothers and three sisters. All my uncles and aunts had very strong individual personalities, but always seemed to me to function as a collective.

This book is dedicated to all the brothers and sisters.
