Drawing Bodies
I am excited to have the opportunity to do another TED talk, and to speak at the TEDxBAW event next week. I have been at work on my talk over several months–it is a long process to craft something using images and words into a coherent 18 minute message. And know it so I don’t use notes.
The talk is about women’s bodies. Drawing bodies of all sorts and genders is my bread and butter; and in the talk, I explore many of the funny and serious issues that confront my own, and all women’s, embodiment.
The cartoon above is one from the talk. I also created a video, but cannot show it to you until the talk is delivered. Stay tuned!

I was at the event, and LOVED your talk! Is there any way to get a copy of the “I’m supposed to be here” cartoon? There are lots of people I’d love to gift it to, for a daily reminder.
Thanks for a great talk!
