Inspiration Part 1 (Patreon)

Hey team! 

Jack, one of Bad Space's Patrons, asked me what my inspiration is, and I've been thinking about that lately, and how to answer it. Because naturally, it's not a simple answer! 

So to start with, I've grabbed a few books off my shelf that had a huge impact on me growing up - which I talk a little more about in the image descriptions. Some of them are books, and some of them are comics. 

The books in particular are ones that actually, really, changed my life. After I had read them, I was a different person, and I was moving in a different direction than I was beforehand. Not many books do that, or do that so substantially, but my god, when they do - just wow. 

The comics shown here inspired me, and they made me realize  just how much could be done with the medium. And made me want to draw comics, or made me want to draw them in new ways. 

I'll go into a bit more detail in future posts, in particular about the art that grabs me, but I just wanted to give you a taster. 

Let me know if you've read any of these (I'm sure that you have!) and any personal favs! I'd LOVE to hear your thoughts.
