Acosta Nunn Graphic Novel as Literature

My very own Comic Strip...

I think that from creating this comic a lot of things came to my mind, first of all was the

main question: "What am I going to do?"

This was an amazing experience I don't know if I'm technically considered and artist but

I do know that I love drawing; this project for me was like a treat. I was able to discover

my muse, my inspiration we could say, I created a comic strip that represented what I

am, this made me really happy because for many years I used to draw things that

already existed like manga and all that kind of stuff, but this project made me challenge

myself into create something unique, something of my own and I'm really happy with

the result.

I used to think of comics like they were just pictures put together in a book but now that

I was playing the part of the graphic novel artist I came to really appreciate the fact that

comics are not just pictures and words, but, artistically speaking, a window to the inner

self of the artist.

I really wish we can have more projects like this, for me the easiest way to learn or

understand things is by doing them myself so I think this project did have a huge impact

on my perspective of comics.

Thank you so much Mr. Bessie for this project I really hope we have more projects of

this kind.
