Comic: Pea and Cheese Omelette
A sweet, sentimental ode to one very special Lola
Words and art by Ashley Topacio
Ashley Topacio is a mixed race multidisciplinary artist. Her comics explore the absurdity and grit of ordinary life and relationships, memoir and imagined. An accomplished fine artist and book author, Ashley focuses on themes of growth, life-death-life cycles of nature and creativity, and really good food. Created exclusively for JoySauce in an ongoing and highly personal series reflecting her experiences as a mixed race woman, she offers us an illustrated version of a memory that may feel as familiar to you as it does to us.
