Searching for artist(s) for a large well funded comic project, code named: Project P.
The Story World
Project P. has haunting tones of disillusionment, alienation and yearning – it’s melancholic, introspective and darkly comedic. The protagonist is a female executive who is challenged with evolving out of deep arrogance that has separated her from much of what life had to offer, even though she thought she had everything- looks, money, power; i.e., she thought she was a unicorn. Confronting death she must overcome her pride. The setting is a modern-day desert hotel- with familiar backdrops one often overlooks; where, beneath the surface, an underlying mystery is revealing its presence.
The Art
Like Watchmen, the art will generally adhere to the 9 panel structure with exceptions where motivated. Illustrations will be composed of efficient delicate line-work and generally muted colors, to evoke a range of subtle emotions, sensuality and psychological disturbance. The style will be evocative and emotionally attuned, with selective detail. (e.g., not every brick in the wall; just a few) The resulting work fuzes demonic sensuality, surreal tension and high stakes.
The Project
600 pages over 12 volumes. Well funded. Starting as soon as possible. Solo artist or large team. Pay range for role and experience. Follow instagram @projectpurgare for preproduction updates.
