One of the best things about working with Matt Fraction is that he thinks out loud, so you might get a text at 10 PM that’s just a list of Daily Planet headlines. Then a couple weeks later you’ve got a script in your hands and you’re drawing this.

Open-Air Painter. Winter-Motif from Åsögatan 145, Stockholm, Carl Larsson, 19??, Nationalmuseum, SWE

Carl Larsson’s monumental painting Open-Air Painter has been seen as a manifesto for Nordic outdoor realism, which came into style in the 1880s. In addition to being a comment on the new practice of painting outdoors, it illustrates the repercussions this had on Scandinavian artists, who were now expected to work directly before their subject even in the cold winter. This specifically Nordic dimension of portraying the seasons attracted great attention when the painting was shown in Paris in 1886.

“The Spider is an ode to my mother. She was my best friend. Like a spider, my mother was a weaver… Like spiders, my mother was very clever. Spiders are friendly presences that eat mosquitoes. We know that mosquitoes spread diseases and are therefore unwanted. So, spiders are helpful and protective, just like my mother.” 🕷 Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) @edwinoostmeijer
