An anthology-based web-comic completed through a collaborative effort, telling the stories of the epic narrative poem, The Metamorphoses, by the Ancient Roman poet Ovid
OVID METAMORPHOSES
I was delighted to be apart of Webtoon’s new 2023 comic Ovid Metamorphoses, a collaborative anthology about Ovid’s work in our Spring 2023 sequential art class. You can view the full comic by clicking on the Webtoon icon below:
I ENCOURAGE YOU ALL TO READ AND VIEW THE WONDERFUL PIECES THAT MY FELLOW COLLABORATORS AND I HAVE CREATED!
Each student was tasked with narrating, sketching, and penciling an individual story, as well as inking and coloring separate chapters. I had the privilege of directing Wings of Wax which is featured in Book VIII, chapter 46 in the Webtoon publication. The story is telling the tale the craftsmen and architect, Daedalus, of whom is being held captive in the Minotaur’s Labyrinth with his son, Icarus. Longing to be free, he attempts to find a means of escape when he stumbles upon a brilliant, yet ambitious idea.
