This zine was a visual auto biography of sorts, with each segment of the zine representing a different point of my life. The visual style used is also a means to convey the emotional content of each piece. For example, the drawing that shows myself at age 6 was drawn in a lush brush style in order to get across the fantastical feeling that the writing suggests. Another example would be the rough and stylistic art used to depict my depression at age 16. The “bed pattern” that is used as both the front cover and as a side border was a happy accident that happened while putting the final files together in order to print and they are my favorite part of the piece. I think they really tie the whole zine together. The final zine was 8.5 x 11.
