A Walk to a Waterfall is a diary comic based on a short solo trip I took to Settle in August 2022.
The themes are depression, isolation, and hope, all encompassed in a physical journey.
One of the elements I plan to visually portray in this comic is a looseness that usually comes along with working on location. To recreate this I'm going to give myself a time limit for each panel, alongside a limited colour pallet.
It will also be hand lettered, to instil the diary feel of the piece. This will be added outside of the time limit.
On this trip I took many references photos, and did work in my sketchbook whilst there. I used theses alongside notes I made on the trip itself to create a script and thumbnails.
