Ariel Schrag has been making
comix for as long as she can remember. She was inspired by a comicbook artist
who happened to share her name, Ariel Bordeaux.
Ariel stands by the black and white comix and zines. She views color with
suspicion, saying it's just another layer of tampering by the publishing companies.
Ariel feels that distributing your art face-to-face is a meaningful stage
for young artists to go through. Slave
Labor Graphics first published Ariel's comix while she was still in high
school.
Sharon Barnes made a documentary about Ariel called Confession.
