Jessica Farm lives in a house populated by fantastical Carroll-esque characters. In fact, the house itself is a bit of a Wonderland, with hidden passages and staircases leading to unexpected, frightening and surreal places. Jessica’s exploration of the house reflects her fragile psyche, alluding to something perhaps sinister in her life.
Done in an inked cross-hatching style, the illustrations are detailed and imaginative, but you can’t help being distracted by the very gimmicky concept of the series itself as you wonder: this took a month? It’s an original and promising work. It’s just too bad it has to take so long to complete.
