Thank you so much! It was tons of extra work to paint analog and then scan and then digitize and then add into my comic panels on Procreate, but it just couldn't be any other way. Digital watercolor brushes just don't look the same.
Beautiful work. I also had the pleasure of working with Kelcey (Shackrag Workshop, Tennessee) she has a wonderful way of bringing out your “inner story.”
This is truly beautiful, Volta - the story's tender ending is so relatable. I love the animations and your watercolor style. The workshop sounds amazing as well. Great work.
Thank you Robin!! Big hugs, I really am so grateful I was in a group with you, to see your beautiful art and such a heartfelt and emotional story come to life.
Volta, your illustrations are so beautiful, and the story so touching. And I love the animations! It was such a treat to see this story evolve and, now, to see the finished project.
Thank you so much for the feedback! It was a lot of extra work for the animations but I'm so glad I stuck it out, because it was definitely part of the original vision. Was my handwriting ok to read on mobile? Because it's my first comic of this sort I want to see what I can do better next time. Thank you!!
I initially read it on my computer, but later showed it to my daughter in my phone. She said she had no trouble reading it on the phone. (She loved it and was super impressed with the animation!)
Thank you for your kind words Darien! I'm so glad to hear you enjoy it! Was the handwriting ok to read on mobile screen? I'm always trying to see how I can improve for the next comic I do. Though this one took me about 5 weeks to complete 😅.
Thank you thank you thank you Kelcey! Your class was a gift to all of us this summer. I'm feeling so inspired about taking this Watercolor comic journey further with more stories! Just gotta find a way to make the process less daunting with all the sketches and scanning.
thanks for posting. I love the mix of water color and line. its a beautiful story.

This is so beautiful and touching Volta 🥺💕 did the stork returned on the next summer? Sometimes they return to the same place!
Thank you so much Teresa! I know the couple of storks does come back but no idea if it's the baby one.
