My Adventures in Comics


Silence of the Naps

178 Silence of the Naps 16NOV2014 - 300dpi We (holler cat people!) all know that this process is never a fast one. AND it’s a process fraught by indecision. But in the end we (they) get what they want. I do have to say that these are among my favorite afternoons. Diana likes to say when it’s nap time, “All animals on me!” Goddess of the hunt indeed. They listen to her.  

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.
