Mountain by the sea

​

Pencil and digital colouring.

​

It is a silent book.

Two people carried their death and sorrow, in the middle of the night; they walked by the mountain, they walked by the sea.  Looking for a comfortable place, to bury the cat they have lost.

Death does not have any sounds; by drawing a story without words, I tried to find the emotion within. There was no draft, and I drew out the vision in my head one by one. I stopped to figure out the ending, and complete the story after a few months.
