The Femme Art Fair opened tonight at The Square International Square, 5th Floor, 1850 K St. NW, Washington, DC and cartoonist Kayla E. is one of the participants. Kayla has a series of fine art paintings for sale. The show runs through Sunday, August 30.
Her graphic novel Precious Rubbish is for sale in the shop on the ground floor on K St.
It was a real pleasure to speak with her and her wife tonight and see her new art. Her graphic novel, an autobiographical story of child abuse and healing is a tough read, but well worth it. Unfortunately she won't be at SPX this year, although she won an Ignatz last year.
There's a lot of interesting art in the show and Bruce Guthrie is taking photos of it as I write this. I'll link to his images later, but here's a few more that I took.
