The black and white illustrations included
here tell absorbing visual stories in a language that is purely graphic and consists of lines instead of letters.
When asked how she was able to give her seemly simple drawings such personality, Watkins replied: "They're all people to me.

Watkins’ Heroine is available in a strictly limited edition.
