When I created this piece, I wanted to portray my escape from reality into my own world.
I chose blue ballpoint pen because it was something new that I’ve never used before, and I wanted to try it out. This piece was originally an assignment in class, but I decided to turn it into more than just homework.
I want to pursue a career in the animation business and hopefully make my own cartoon show. I’ve always created stories in my head, and I want to share those stories with other people.
