THE LIBRARIAN / SKATER

Alex joined our Creative Arts Group for the first time last week. He's a librarian by day and creative Comic Strip writer on the side. His work is published in several local newspapers like "Go Detroit" and "The Blader". Alex has been writing Comic Strips for about 12 years and enjoys expressing himself to the community thru his edgy, sometimes political, sometimes satirical viewpoint.

After creating the original Comic Strip on letter sized paper, he copies and distributes the piece to several different publications. There are no specific contracts with a certain newspaper, so this allows Alex to distribute and be published as the editors of the papers see fit. The newspaper will then modify the size and decide where in their paper they want the Comic to run.

Alex came to the meeting that we were creating with Clay and came up with a very detailed cat as his piece. We'll be featuring all of our sculptures in the next week or so.
