Portland based artist
released a graphic novel
in 2015
called Capacity.
I happened to grab
it by chance
at my library
and entered quickly
into a dream realm
(although non-fiction)
lost deep
in an intricate forest.
Ellsworth's work has drawn
comparisons to
Where The Wild Things Are,
if that dimension
happened to be
on multiple gulps
of mescaline juice.
Intricate and magical,
each piece is one step
further away from reality,
despite the content
being autobiographical.
Following Capacity,
I happened to see
a zine at Quimby's
called Imaginary Homework
that I had to grab.
You can pick it up
yourself at Ellsworth's
Etsy store, where he sells
zines, prints, and books.
He calls his world the
Thought Cloud Factory
and it's a world
worth exploring.
I've gathered
some of my favorite
images on the site
for a gallery below.
