Matchwood
“Matchwood” was my senior thesis project I worked on in the spring of 2020. It’s a story about two best friends who realize they're in love just before one of them has to fulfill a mysterious familial calling to become the sun. This comic is unfinished due to Covid-19 related impacts, and will perhaps one day exist in a very different form. As of now, it's a half-finished 64 page graphic novella about love, longing, and friendship.
