Sequential art is generally defined as an art form consisting of juxtaposed words, and pictures expressing multiple ideas, or concepts in a series (sequence). Being the Image Creator that I am I will go even further than the standard textbook definition to say that sequential art is a narrative art manifested visually. That is to say it tells a story…even if that story is as boring as the storyboards of an anti-depressant commercial.

The most commonly known expressions of sequential art are: comic strips, comic books, storyboards, and sometimes children’s books (the words and pictures aren’t always integrated in children’s books.)

The Black Age of Comics, Gekiga, and Manga also fall under this banner, but i won’t get too detailed about that here.

Some people would say that sequential art started with the Penny Dreadful comics in europe. Well those people are wrong. Sequential art or Seqa (see-kwa) as we aficionados call it is basicly show, and tell. So the earliest form of Seqa belongs to the African griots. Even today MC’s conjure images in the listeners minds.  But I digress. The most famous of the early Sequential artists would have to be the ones that rocked those ill pieces inside the pyramids in Kemet, and Nubia.

That’s a short history lesson for you. I had to give it beacuse I wince every-time I have to use the misnomer “comics” to describe my work concisely. I’ll save the gritty details on that for another diatribe though.

So if you were ever wondering, or just want to see an animatic head on over!

Beautiful, and useful year-round, and additions are made yearly. These pieces contain valuable information from how to grow food, health benefits, dishes, and of course amazing art work!

Now I’ve noticed alot of folks were diggin my one of a kind canvas paintings, but let’s face it original art isn’t affordable for everyone. So in the spirit of Ujamaa, I’m working round the clock to find the lowest cost print-on-demand service to provide you with the most affordable price!

So bookmark this page, facebook it, fave it, tweet it, and keep your “I” on this space.

Besides that Illness is in production. With all the recent traveling experiences I’ve had I have a lot to put put into the cursed boy’s journeys.

A new spa is opening in my area, and the proprietor invited me to sell/exhibit my work there. So I’m also working on two paintings for that spot in my spare time (which there isn’t much of).
