He who knows how to appreciate colour relationships, the influence of one color on another, their contrasts and dissonances, is promised an infinitely diverse imagery.
- Sonia Delaunay
Color is my day-long obsession,
joy and torment.
- Claude Monet

copper

Posted by Charley Parker at 10:31 pm

copper
Kazu Kibuishi’s charming, wistful, and deceptively simple series of single page web comics. A boy an his (talking) dog drift through various settings, real or imagined, while musing on a variety of thoughts. Sort of Calvin and Hobbes meet Little Nemo, with emphasis on the latter. The strips are beautifully drawn and colored. Read one of the recent ones to see how beautiful they are, then scroll to the bottom and read them all from the earliest. When you’re done and dying for more, explore the rest of the Bolt City site.

There is also a copper strip on the preview for Flight Comics.

    I saw the copper story in Flight, but I like these even better.
