ATA: The Art of Visual Storytelling

Hi Cliff!  I really like the pen and ink look so far. :D  Even if it's just a rough, I just like that look.  Really nice shapes and angles happening so far. I think the question that pops into my mind right away is why is there a distance between the truck and the house?  Are there any visual clues you can leave me?  Also, have you seen any art from Open Season?  They are some really great examples of art by various artists that have similar opening and developing shots that are really worth taking a look at.  There might be some really great inspiration for you! :D http://www.wilygraphics.com/timingandspacing/2006/09/art_of_open_season_book.html  
and on Amazon at:  http://www.amazon.com/The-Open-Season-Linda-Sunshine/dp/1933784040/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1364287717&amp;sr=8-3&amp;keywords=open+season+art+book
I'm sorry Amazon doesn't have a look inside option. 

 I look forward to seeing more of your work though! :D

Thanks for the comment Tara!  I see what you are saying about the house being too far off in the distance.  I was trying to make it look lonely in the middle of nowhere.  I think you are totally right about creating more visual clues for the viewer. Your pushing me to think future past the obvious and I thank you for that. I have not looked at Open Season yet, thanks for the suggestion!

:D  I'm looking forward to seeing how you make the house feel lonely.  I see you've started with some details... :D
