I’ve concluded, being an artist, being a writer, is kind of an impotent thing in a way. You describe how you FEEL. And if you have serious chops as an artist, you can give vivid DESCRIPTIONS of those feelings.
But it’s not like you can enact any kind of changes. Or come up with any solutions. Or make things better. All an artist can say is: This Is What Happened.
Ace Backwords is a former cartoonist, writer and semi-normal human being. He's been sleeping in the bushes in the Berkeley hills for the last ten years with his four feral cats, Moo Cat, Fatty, Mini Scaredy and Micro Scaredy. Future plans include growing old and dying. Preferably in that order.
