The gist of my newest comic exercise.
📝This archived post is originally from my old comics focused Wordpress blog from 2011-2019. That site was a space to publicly commit to learning the art and craft of cartooning and self-publishing.
These posts are full of a naive enthusiasm that though at times embarrassing, I'm proud of. I hope you find them useful in some way.❤️
As you all know, gags aren’t my thing. At least not yet. Lewis Trondheim has been a really big influence on me and his works Mr. O and Mr. I have gotten me to trying out my own distillations of gags strips.
The comic before you needs some touching up, but for now it captures the essence of what I wanted to do. You’ll see more frames added in a bit, for now I’m getting other documents to print. The print version of this comic will be a mini comic that has one frame per page and that flips horizontally. It will be a radically different reading experience. In reality, that is how this comic should be read.
My self imposed deadline for applying to the CCS is looming and as such, I’ve got to kick myself into a higher gear. But you already knew that, didn’t you?
