Hey there, world. Long time no post. I've been going through a large creative block recently. But I think things are on the up and up. Emmalee bought me an amazing book for an anniversary gift. It's called 'Kirby, King of Comics,' and it chronicles the life and career of comic book legend Jack Kirby. The book is fantastic, and has revitalized my passion for drawing comics.
I've realized something about myself, and I'm not sure if it's a good thing or bad. I'm somewhat of an artistic chameleon. When I'm reading a comic book or a book about comics, I want so badly to pencil comics myself, and apply all my effort in that direction. Then I read a good book and want so badly to be a storybook illustrator. Then I watch an animated film and I want to animate, or storyboard, or design animated characters.
I think what it all comes down to is this: I want to be part of a collaborative effort, telling stories through drawing. It doesn't matter the medium or the industry. I just want to draw for an audience, and share something. Hopefully it'll happen someday.
