Illustrated Stories
4 years ago
If you haven't seen already, I have recently released my first illustrated story Bells (episode 1).
The idea came to me when I thought back to the stories I would write and I missed how I could create more nuanced and longer/ more detailed narratives from the written word that could explore not just a wider range of topics in a piece but also explore the mind of the individual. Something that is difficult to pull off in purely graphical forms such as comics without insane amounts of effort and time that isn't really viable, so topics and narratives end up being heavilly condensed.
The great thing I have found with this new thing I have experimented with is that I can really go into things I want to explore/ express (and I know that you guys probably want to consume) and still provide graphical content where it is needed, and to have art with a true context that stems from a broader narrative. I find that pretty cool!
I in no means see myself as a real amazing writter, but I do love really expressing things in an almost liquid way, that lets the imagination flow, and I hope that comes through in my work.
If you think you would enjoy seeing more content like this you can get the story here: https://jagerdarklite.itch.io/bells1
I have put up a goal that if reached would mean that this kind of content would work for me time to money wise so I could feel safer in producing it and be supported in doing so, which would be amazing!
Thanks for all your support!
If you have read episode 1 already, please give me any feedback you have (no spoilers in the comments though ofc, please) I am very interested in seeing where I can improve and aspects of it you enjoyed.
As for the daily sketches, I will be back to doing those in the new year for you guys, along with existing commissions.
