Whether to articulate an idea where speech
has failed,
to express a particular mood, or to
release the fantastic creatures of my imagination, I have always used illustration
as a vital tool to communicate to an audience.
I want to immerse people in my stories visually,
which is accomplished by clearly conveying a mood through
a character and their surrounding environment
throughout
a sequence of events.
If the drawings are successful, the character would be someone the audience could empathize with, and someone they could truly believe exists, whether that character is human or not.
