Koudelka

Preparing a reversal takes time!


Finally all covered up!

My cheap tracing paper protection mechanism attachment of doom! "OOOOOO... AHHHHH..." :D

And...Here's the photo that I'll be loving and loathing about for the next 3 weeks!

Fly me to the moon

So this week we were assigned to use our last strip and replace the text with one of the writing assignments we had to do to get some juxtapositions. However, my last week's strip was a juxtaposition, so I asked John what I should do this time. He suggested I do new strip with a random illustration before hand and have someone randomly select one of my writings and see what I could come up with. Well here we go. Inspired by Franklin Booth + Rendering in Pen and Ink Book. :)

This is war



I must say... it's a funny thing. I usually don't get my ideas for my strips on the spot. It takes me forever to decide on what to do, even up to the morning before it's due. Well it happened once again.

Never have I ever didn't want to go back to sleep.

Tuesday morning around 1:48am, I experienced sleep paralysis to an extent. I laid in my bed 10 minutes before it happened. As my eyelids began to betray me, just instantly, I felt a cold breeze
literally wrap around my face like I was being attacked. The breeze whistled rapidly in and out of my head like killer bees. I tried YELLING out for help, but oddly, I noticed I was muted. I also couldn't move at all. It lasted no less than four seconds but from then, I stayed up for next 4 hours, scared shitless.

I'm grateful to be alive.
