There's something about comics that fascinates me. I love the way illustration, design and narrative come together in a single piece of art. Unfortunately most comics (including a lot of graphic novels) are total rubbish, aimed at teenage boys interested in very simple plots about super heroes and evil villains. I'd love to see a greater variety of graphic novels, telling more complex tales about 'real' people and that use the medium in a way that shows it's true potential as a story telling device.
This brings me to this particular piece of work. It's a single page from what was going to be my attempt at producing another graphic novel (other than the one I completed as an assignment for Uni). However my lack of ability to write or focus on a single thing for more than 5 minutes, never saw it completed.
I came across it recently and have since coloured it up so as to give it a more completed state. For some reason I quite like the end result. It's not as 'finished' as a lot of my other stuff and kind of has a 'cut and paste' feel to it. However I may wake up tomorrow and have a different opinion.
And that's my biggest post so far - man, what a big mouth I am today.
