Woow. Very personal project which can help you to be motivated. Great idea, I like the fact that you are doing manga as you are good at it and is also different!

Mission: I know that all this was very hard for you but I would like to see something that has a bright side as well! <3

Real people although my style often comes out as semi realistic
I like making diptychs because I think it is a very good technique for visual story telling.

For my final major project I have decided to tell a story about bereavement because a week before I finished year 11 for sixth form a friend of mine died and the year before that my grandmother died shortly after I had seen her for the first time in sixteen years which was a surprise as I thought she had already died. Since she had dementia she didn't recgonise me, she had mistaken me for my older sister.

I wasn't able to go to their funerals to say goodbye to them like everyone else because mom thought I was too young and wouldn't be able to handle it.

When my friend died I started comfort eating which had lead me to becoming obese which I'm still working off now.

I started to keep myself distant from my peers because I was afraid that if I got too attached to them it would make it worse when I loose them. Then a friend that used to be in my class invited me into a drama club to try and help me rebuild my social life. It was good as it helped cheer myself up and get along with people again.

I didn't do it last year because the death of my friend was still kind of raw to me so I had decided to use it for designing a manga cover and title page like my tutor suggested.
