Dear All,

It’s been two months since the Residency finished, but as promised, I’m keeping up with regular emails to let you know what I’m getting up to.

Change of Address

I am currently improving my website, and have a new URL. Due to hosting problems, www.kazmantra.co.uk is being moved, and now has a new address: www.karenrubins.com where it is under construction. Please update your bookmarks.

Laydeez Do Comics - 29^th March 2010

I will be presenting a talk about my experiences as the V&A’s Comics Artist in Residence, and what I’ve been up to since then.

The incredibly talented Kate Brown will also be presenting.

Laydeez Do Comics is “a graphic novel reading group or forum with a focus on comic works based on life narrative, the drama of the domestic and the everyday.” according to their website, and you don’t have to be a lady, a laydee or even a gentleman to attend. All are welcome.

We are also going to be discussing Erica Sakurazawa’s The Aromatic Bitters.

For details, see their website: www.laydeezdocomics.com

V&A Magazine Spring 2010

I have a four page comic strip in the new edition of the V&A Magazine, along with an article about the National Art Library’s comic and graphic novel collections. The story is my first autobiographical comic! It is also completely fictional. You can subscribe to the V&A magazine here: http://www.cultureshockmedia.co.uk/shop/index.html

Thanks for reading and staying subscribed!

Best wishes,

Karen.
