Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland - The Graphic Novel - Creator/Illustrator

Published on Oct 2019

  • Concept art: This started by creating a variety of initial sketches to get the characteristics of the piece to feel cohesive. Once I was happy with the general look, I went on to create a visual story guide which included characters, locations, scenery, costume, and color cohesion guides.

  • Creating the graphic novel: This process included thumbnail sketches, full page sketches, inking done with Micron pens, scanning using an Epson Scanner, and prepping the pages for coloring. The next step was to digitally color through “color flatting” and digital painting and shading all done in Adobe Photoshop.

  • Prepping for Digital Publication: Preparing and organizing pages for digital distribution via Amazon Kindle program
