One of my main goals while drawing the imagery with this story was to make A&P come across as a children’s book because of how simple and descriptive the short story was. Matthew Gray Gubler was an inspiration with my drawings. He is an author who uses adult concepts but draws very sketchy and child like images. Since I’m not an artist, his method really sticks out to me and that’s part of the reason why I drew such simplistic pieces. I also wanted to be extremely literal with my drawings even though some people might find it cliche, but I also wanted things to be disproportionate and somewhat comedic at the same time. As for the synergy and harmony aspect, I wanted my drawings to reflect exactly what the words were describing. I wanted to make the images that I created in my mind come alive on the page. My front cover was used to set the scene, a boring grocery store, and the rest of the pages were used to point out the descriptions of the author. My back cover I struggled with for a long time because I was not quite sure how to wrap it all up. I used the very last scene as the back cover. I’m not good when it comes to drawing people so unfortunately they are stick figures, but I wanted to show how alone the main character felt in the end with the portrayal of an empty parking lot and the people in the window.
