Our very own (MFA Comics ‘27) will debut her book Magic Up at (Festival BD de Montréal / Montréal Comics and Arts Festival) this weekend! Developed throughout her first year in the MFA program, Magic Up is a full-color and timeless fairy tale that’s unfortunately all too real. Winter’s work is filled with incisive commentary juxtaposed with gorgeously rendered visuals. Check out her nonfiction piece in as well (previewed in slides 3 & 4). Good luck this weekend Winter, and congratulations on the achievement!!
