The front and back of my final project for my comics class this semester! Not super in love with how the actual comic turned out, I didn't finish it and it was super unclear to my classmates, but I did an adaptation of the first few chapters of The Darkest Minds by @alexandrabracken ! AKA, my favorite book ever. I'm pretty happy with these, at least. The color symbolism of Ruby being surrounded by green in front of an orange background and the Black Betty shot having a yellow and blue sky is very intentional.
IMAGE ID: Two copic marker illustrations. The first is of Ruby Elizabeth Daley sitting on a rock in front of a green forest and an orange-yellow sunset. She wears her camp uniform, which is depicted as a dress shirt with a green patch on the side, a tag with her number, and dark grey pants. She's a 16 year old Jewish girl with dark hair, pale brown skin, and some freckles. The second is of Black Betty, a black minivan with Betty's Cleaning Service written on it in white, sitting in the middle of a clearing in the forest, in front of mountains. The sun's just set behind the mountains. END ID.
