In a way as I re-edit this post, this reminds me of (and was probably inspired by)\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=q4KIZD1cTJI\">Satoshi Kun\u2019s animation short, \u201cOhayo\u201d<\/a>. I remember I was obsessed with a YouTube Channel called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@everyframeapainting\">\u201cEvery Frame a Painting\u201d<\/a> :\u00a0<em>\u201c\u2026 a series of video essays about film form, made from April 2014 to September 2016, by Taylor Ramos and Tony Zhou\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\r\n<p>It was through their channel that I was introduced to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=oz49vQwSoTE\">Satoshi Kun<\/a> and the way he edited space and time. From there, I realized that even in sequential art; the framing and blocking of the scenes can have innovations that mirror film styles. For the \u201cMorning Evolutions\u201d, the transitions between scenes were quirky and experimental to connote the feel of time not really being definite as if still awakening.<\/p>\r\n<p>This was done on Watercolor paper (8.5\u2033 x 11\u2033)\u00a0 with Inks, Coffee, watercolors and Markers. \u00a92018<\/p>\r\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-295 gallery-columns-3
