I used to consider my self an artist back when I was in grade 4 or so. Then I met the harsh truth that I was by no mean special, and so I stop drawing seriously. Even so, I am capable of doing basic art, especially pencil sketch and doing it was quite fun. After a few years, I am starting to accept the truth of mediocrity and prevent myself from comparing myself to other people. 

Around late September of 2023, my Language Art class (Mr. Ariel) was running a semestrial final project.  The only option that sounds to be fun and engaging for me was comic strip drawing for the work that we were studying which was A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen. I started planning for each panels and draw a rough sketch for my work. However, after only finishing the first few panels, I would came to realized that I was making a huge mistake. I didn't read the instruction clear enough and draw a comic for just one scene which covers around 3-4 pages of the play. The instruction however, was to draw a comic strip that summarize the entirety of the play. In the end, I have to restart from zero and switch the project into a storyboard. 

However, just leaving the old one behind doesn't sound like something for me and so after finishing the school project, I decided to continue with my old comic strip just for the sake of self fulfillment. I only took a few day and I was quite satisfied with the result.
