“Roy” A Short Story

Roy is average and has a normal office job. This is a story of Roy’s simple day and how he unexpectedly saves a child’s life. The tone of the plot is not exciting; I wanted to keep it as bland as life can be. I drew these digitally and used only black and white allowing the viewer to focus more on what is happening. I aimed for an illustrative “sketchy” look because I felt it added to the emptiness of the compositions.The user does nothing more than progress the story.
