Research - Short Form Diary Comic Creators

 

Julia Gootzeit often uses skewed panels in her work, which I think creates a feeling of confusion and disorientation. Find Julia's work here: instagram.com/ohmyghoulia

I love Kat Schneids use of panels to create real emotion in her work. A mix of full image and text only. Find Kats work here: instagram.com/katschneids


Anna Vaivare is another artist that uses a lot of texture in their work, and whilst not a sequential artist as such, I particularly loved this piece for its use of sketchy texture and the simple four panels that give it a lot of motion. Find Anna's work here: Instagram.com/annavaivare


Lesley Imgart uses very simple imagery within panels, along with hand-written words that make it feel very raw. Find Lesleys work here: instagram.com/lesleyimgart

The way J Marshall Smith  splits this one full image into separate panels is really intriguing. I also love the narrative corrections in pen. Find J.Marshall Smiths work here: instagram.com/jmarshallsmith

Hannah Hillam approaches diary comics in a much more self deprecating and humours way. I enjoy the simplicity. Find Hannahs work here: instagram.com/hannahhillman
