Art-For-Art’s-Sake Theatre: Ben Hatke

Time once again for our usual midday Wednesday feature.

In the art world, there is indeed still a place for paper and pencil, pen, and/or brush. A case in point is Ben Hatke, a writer, artist, author of graphic novels and picture books -- most notably the Zita the Spacegirl series, and the forthcoming picture book Julia’s House. An illustration of the former is shown here, in varying stages of development, and as yet another excuse for an animated gif.
