Welcome to day 2 of our 30 Day Creative Challenge! This year is so darned special, there are two simultaneous challenges. The primary challenge is to respond to the creative prompts in these posts, and see what happens. The alternative challenge is to make a comic based on the year 2020. You choose what you’re up for today. Today’s prompt will be applicable to both.

30SAL Challenge: Panels
Gather old drawings, abandoned paintings, magazines, catalogues, newspapers, fabric, wrappers, labels, whatever you have around you. Cut them into shapes that fit together to form a larger composition – whether through an interaction of color (like a quilt or abstract geometric painting) or with a sequence of narrative scenes. If it adds to the expression, feel free to add cut out speech bubbles with thoughts, statements, and written sound effects. Hot tip for the drawing phobic: kid’s drawings are perfect for this! 2020 Comic illustrators: consider playing with formats like this for your comic sequences going forward. See below for more ideas about comic panels and sequencing.
