Tuned Out
Here is my attempt at actually drawing a comic. Kind of wanted to tell this joke, but didn’t have any photos to support it, nor did I want to stage a photo shoot.
Funny things about bands, not that I’m saying this is what’s happening with the dudes I’m playing with now, but there is always that fantasy of figuring out the other things rather than figuring out the content first.
About MY ADVENTURES IN COMICS
Since I had no confidence in my drawing skills, I figured I’d take a bunch of photos and organize them into a comic strip. Everything about the comic was inspired by real life. However, it started to get difficult telling a story or writing a joke around photos and it felt like I was doing everything backwards.
So, at the end of 2014, I thought I’d try my hand at writing a joke first, then drawing. Thus, the comic was reborn. Though it seemed simple enough, I wondered if I could keep it up regularly. And now, here we are.
My Adventures in Comics is A COMPLETELY FICTIONAL strip inspired by life, love, family, work, cats & dogs, and music.
Tools: pencil, pens, paper, and Comic Life program.
