Wonderful fantasy by Keegan McHargue to celebrate his new Nieves zine

Date
21 August 2014

Apologies if this is a slightly dismayed post, but upon thinking I had stumbled across a gem via Nieves’ announcement of some new zines I was excited to be the first to write about Keegan McHargue on It’s Nice That. Alas I was not, but it doesn’t mean that we can’t shout about his brilliance once more.

I often think that the sign of a true artist is one who can’t help but produce reams upon reams of work in a style like no other, for no other reason other than that they just have to. To escape into Keegan’s world is easy due to its appeal – no one’s trying to trick you into thinking it means something it doesn’t, you just have to lie back and allow yourself to be carried, by tiny sprites, into the depths of his imagination. Grab a copy of his brand new zine Preparation K published by Nieves as well while you’re here, unless it’s already sold out.
