Contemplative Comics day 31
My comics are already so unprofessional because I draw them with markers instead of making them “high” art and painting them or “commercial” and doing them digitally.
But digital coloring bores the life out of me.
And painting would take much too long.
I don’t have time to make comics. But I do it anyway. So what I make has to be fast and complete. There’s no time for rough drafts and perfection. Get it down on paper, scan it, a quick edit to adjust colors, and check spelling. Post it.
It takes between an hour to an hour and a half to produce one of these strips.
I think they have gotten better over time, and I will always mess with them and work on ways to make them more creative and continue to experiment.
But I have so many obligations towards my family and to work and will probably always need some kind of second job. So I just don’t care to try and make money off of these. I would rather draw what I want when I want, why I want.
And that means leaving scribbled out words because I sort of like the way it looks.
Its more fun this way.
