Arrive Alive

9"x12"

Graphite on drawing paper. 

The prompt for this assignment was to create something that went with the theme of "arrive alive" and distracted driving. It was made using a plain old graphite pencil on drawing paper. There was a lot of thought that went into this. I wanted to create something that showed the panic of someone's last moments while showing the theme of distracted driving. I made the lines harsher and fuzzier the closer the car got, and in the last panel I made the car as shaky as possible to show the sheer panic of the driver and her realizing the situation she was in. I also chose to make only the words "Mom" and "I'm sorry" bold to show their importance over the other words on the phone screen.
