This chapter presents an introspection of Lynda Barry's Big Idea in comic form. It highlights the compelling aspect of Barry's narrative despite exuding a sense of clandestine adult dread through distinctly unlovely and scratchy pictures and drawings. Good art has been understood as contextual, while style remains to be relative instead of absolute. As abstraction is a meaningful and conscious choice, the words and images of a narrative must work together. The intentionality of Barry's works underscores and reinforces her content. The chapter clarifies that no art is truly original, so it is best to learn from everyone to find oneself. It mentions appreciation of Barry's teaching to look back and discover great value in discarded works. |
