Description:

"(W/A) Sophie Crumb A groundbreaking work of striking originality that charts a young artist's life through her own drawings, from toddlerhood to motherhood. Sophie Crumb's startlingly expressive drawings track her development as an artist from age 2 to 28. Revealing how an original artistic sensibility is both innate and nurtured, the book features six separate developmental stages, including Sophie's earliest drawings, the elaborate fantasy world of her childhood, her late adolescent rebellion, and her coming of age in the milieu of the Paris circus world and New York's 'seventh circle of hell.' The drawings from her early twenties reflect a personal anguish that finally ends with her becoming a mother and creating a family of her own. Illuminating and intimate, this book is a dramatic yet subtle statement on the evolution of personality as seen through art. Limited Edition includes signed prints by Sophie Crumb, her father Robert Crumb and mother Aline Crumb. A groundbreaking work of striking originality that charts a young artists life through her own drawings. Introductions and edited by Robert Crumb and Aline Crumb. "
