We spoke to artist and writer Lisa Hanawalt about the evolution of her work, diversity in animation, and telling dick jokes

Photo-Illustration: Getty Images, Lisa Hanawalt To get in the head of artist and writer Lisa Hanawalt is to enter a swirl of birdwomen and horsemen, deep-seated anxiety, and many a sex joke. Now well known for her work on BoJack Horseman and her own show, Tuca & Bertie , Hanawalt has always been fixated on animals and neuroses in her work. The release of I Want You, a collection of her early drawings, comics, and flash fiction, is a way to see the connective tissue in her work now.

Some things are literal images that come up over and over again, like the sex bugs [horny bugs that frequently pop up in her work]. That’s something that comes back in Tuca & Bertie, and I always thought it was funny. And this preoccupation with bodily functions and fluids in a very infantile way. It’s the desublimated thing where I’m an adult but I’m splashing around in the mud.

What’s it like looking back at the progress of your career from these early comics to then having success with shows like BoJack and Tuca & Bertie?
