Very first daily deviation, wow! Would have been even nicer if the links at the bottom were working correctly! *^_^* Everything is fixed now. Thanks for all the comments guys!


comic book project: 3-5 page sequential art narrative, using no dialogue, based on a character we had created in a project a week earlier. My character was a brave little traveller on a long trek just for a simple thing.

I liked my character: quiet, worn, weary, but no matter what, he still keeps going. I liked my story: a self-contained little slice of life, showing how hard he will try and how far he will go, try to establish some character development.... but, like with all school projects, I always feel rushed and inevitably I am always dissapointed with the final result. In order to fit the story into the five page maximum, I was forced to compress the images and I wasn't able to pace it as I would have liked to. The final painting was not as well-planned as it should have been.

But, such is life.




This page:
Finally my traveller has returned home, and we finally see what the heck was in his pack that was so important: nothing but a simple load of groceries, brought home to his wife and child.

We've been having a lot of financial problems this year; that definately added an extra layer of meaning to this project for me. Sometimes simply providing the basics for your family can feel like just such a monumental trek.
