The Swamped City
Prompt: Making a series of works that is 3-5 panels, but still independent artworks, each contributing to a whole. All are based on one word.
The assignment was to create a series of works 3 to 5 panels based on one word and I chose the word apocalypse. The 5 panels intended to make the viewer question who is evil, did the frogs take over or did the diver sneak into the frog world? I wanted to explore creating a world centered on a character so I created everything purposeful. Throughout the panels, you can see the diver taking body parts of the frogs and the frogs hopping through cities, again making you think about who is “evil” in this story. I also tried to use perspective in all my pieces and have bold black spots to help highlight specific parts and to help move the viewer’s eyes.
