May take on Comic strips (Comics track)

 



I always wanted to create a small and simple comic strip for my father. He has a super cute puppy. This dog is adorable but awkward and often gets into funny situations. I always thought that he is an excellent subject for comic strips. 

And after reading "Peanuts", especially the early ones, I got inspired and did four small comics in the "Peanuts" format. 

I enjoyed the simplicity of "Peanuts", and that many situations are very understandable even without words. 

Plus, a super simple black and white art style help the audience read these strips fast without hesitation. 

I did wordless situations that happened to my father's dog and made these comics in two styles. Black and white and colored with some old print tone effect. I thought that this is also an excellent reference to some colorful early comic strips by other artists, like the comic strip of "Little Nemo." 

I also found that animals are an excellent subject for comic strips situations. You can come up with tons of amusing situations and all without words. 

My mother has 14 chickens, and each of them has their characters, I think, to make some comic strips with them. And maybe this time with words. 

Because, of course, the big part of "Peanuts" is humor, not only situational but also verbal humor. 

I read "Peanuts" on its first release year and the latest one, and to be honest, I enjoyed reading the first year more, to be honest, I think because the style looked cuter to me. 

I hope you'll like my take on comic strips.
