Fun Home 1-2

Fun Home's first two chapters really got me interested in reading the whole story. The art used goes along with the tone of the story really well, I feel that it enhances the story tremendously. The way the artist drew the characters gave them an almost, depressed feeling. I'd like to describe the overall panels as looking "scratchy" rather than having rigid lines or very curvy childish lines. The different shades of blues that are given as color also make it feel even more depressed. With the addition of the characters almost never smiling it makes for a rather gloomy setting and plot, visually.
