Sarah Mensinga
Raw innocence and persistent cheerfulness are hallmarks of Sarah Mensinga’s work, with only occasional counterpoints of gloom and malice. Her wildly stylistic work seems rooted in both comicbook and fairytale aesthetics.
With a willful disregard for time and place, her sketches are peopled with wide-eyed girls, scraggly boys, and spunky forest creatures. Without backgrounds to distract us, the are the very essence of character. Ms. Mensinga’s graphic novel project, however, looks to be firmly rooted in a peculiar, atmospheric land of her own making. Whatever their source, her art is certainly worth the wait.
