If you're going to MoCCA this weekend, be sure to stop by the Fantagraphics table on Saturday from 3-4pm to say hi to Lilli. You can also catch her a few hours later (6:30-8:30) at Giant Robot for the release of Windy Corner #3.
San Francisco-based artist, Kristine Reano, draws inspiration from the intricacies of nature. She creates gossamer environments with watercolor and meticulously detailed line work. Kristine's most recent collection, "The Forgotten Meaning of Hollow", encourages the viewer
to question the notion of emptiness and it's illusions.
