Heya Bubs
I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Sanrio has confirmed that Hello Kitty is NOT a a cat. She’s a little British girl who speaks from the heart. Weird. I’m still trying to wrap my mind around the idea, but I guess it makes sense? She’s wearing a mask? Her “cat ears” are really a hairstyle? She’s from an alternate universe…or the future?
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.
