Maggie’s compositions, drawings, and use of black and white are exceptional. Viewing this body of work inspires me to do better as an artist overall, and in the composing stages of laying out a book. I cannot wait to read the finished book! — Ash H.G., cartoonist behind The Golden Thread Zine & forthcoming graphic novel East District

Reviews

These storyboards are full of brilliant sequences in which the handling of the physical medium is integral to the transformation of characters and events. I especially love the line drawings of the couple in "Intoxicated." — Sibil Bink, cartoonist and gardener
