Basically the difference between a cover artist and an interior artist. Everything I practiced was like splash pages and when I had to draw a person on a sofa with a coffee I shit the bed.
Well this definitely blew up overnight! Hi, I'm Boum, a cartoonist from snowy Montreal! I've been doing comics professionally since 2011, my latest graphic novel THE JELLYFISH is available everywhere and won many awards, and I'm currently working on another graphic novel slated for 2026-2027. ✨
Nooooo! 😭 I’m so sorry! I also get lazy when I’m pencilling and then it suddenly takes me a whole day to do a panel because I have to plan it out! I started adding boxes (that get bigger), plants, picture frames, rocks… anything that fits on a shelf! Whatever it takes to not draw those spines! 😉❤️📚
I'm intentionally about to cheat in the page I'm drawing now, by having the character quickly approach the door in one panel, then having the door slam shut tight in the next. It's for pacing!
