Infographic Little Creative Strips

(as seen in my Semiotics for Designers and Illustrators 2026 book)

These infographic comic strips feature our Creativeland hero Little Creative as they take an excursion into Theoryland to understand Charles Sanders Peirce's pragmatic semiotic theory.

Quote from Semiotics for Designers and Illustrators (2026) Case Study 1:

I will be purloining a narrative device from Winsor McCay’s classic 1920s comic strip, Little Nemo in Slumberland to contextualise this language-barrier. I have called this case study Little Creative in Theoryland. In McCay’s original Little Nemo is a boy who every time he falls asleep in bed he enters Slumberland. While in Slumberland he sees marvel and has adventures, before he returns to his world and wakes up. I am using this concept as metaphor. Your world is Creativeland, and your excursions into Theoryland are just as confusing and mesmerising as Little Nemo’s where nothing makes immediate sense but is still somehow familiar.

My Little Creative character slips between Creativeland and Theoryland in ten strips in my new book. Legisigner subscribers will not only get FULL access to the actual strips that will be featured in the book, but also behind-the-scenes access to how I created each strip from start to finish.
