Gilda And Meek

CHRISTMAS COLORS

In my deep dive site clean-up, I have started to seriously fix things in the saga that make me unhappy.

Weirdly enough, it's stopped merely being about fixing typos and misspellings. For my latest go-through of Gilda And Meek "Don't Logic Santa" I did something nuts.

I colored all of the Christmas decorations.

I had to rescan a LOT of the issue because there was so much color I added. The coloring itself looks sloppy (which is appropriate because the rest of the issue does too). But I felt it might be cool to give the reader a sense of the color and wonder Gilda actually sees at Christmas, and sort of demonstrate in a visual manner WHY it is magical for her.

I deliberately declined to color Santa and his outfit. Whatever magic Christmas holds for Gilda, The Un-Iverse's Santa will always be outside of it. Considering how deeply Santa wound up loving Gilda as the saga went on, it's a really sad thing if you get right down to it. But yeah, Gilda's faith in Christmas has nothing to do with him. Not saying he and Gilda won't reconnect under better circumstances later on, but right now, the color of Gilda's world belongs to Christmas, NOT Santa. For her, they are two entirely separate things.

Shit like this is why I am STRONGLY resisting the idea of making colored / inked Special Editions of all of the rest of the issues before The Terran Wars. Stuff like that wouldn't play anymore.

Have any of you seen Pierre Bonnard's works?

The recent art book from my library I finished was about Pierre Bonnard. It was a rather big one and so it took me a bit longer to finish than the others. He was born in 1867 and passed away in 1947, living to be 79. He was a founding member of the post impressionist group.

What I noticed and what the book talked about a good deal was his detailed backgrounds. With colors and textures they stood out in an unusual way. Pierre was inspired by Japanese art and having now seen some of his paintings in the similar style I feel it worked well for him. Some of his paintings felt pretty expressive with his somewhat flowing style of clothing, hairstyles, poses and facial expressions. Pierre seemed to have liked painting with his friends and family during dining or lounging or
I liked what the book shared with me but looking online at his other works has been a good experience as well.
