Comic Book Biographies: Issue 1, Life of Riley

riley3-3

This makes my portraiture SO. MUCH. MORE. FUN.

So, I have this friend named Riley.  We became friends at work, then connected through facebook.  Her posts were all around hilarious, deep, and very raw…mostly about being transgender. One day, she posted something hilarious about an encounter she had while out running and I had mentioned that in my artistic mind, I could see this scenario playing out in my head like a comic book.

*BINGO*

She said “OMG, I’ve always wanted to be in a comic book!”

The rest is history!  =)  Here are my first few pages.  All of the words are from Riley’s posts.
