This comic is about my own feelings and it was based on the death of my grandmother. My grandmother died in the second month after I arrived in Edinburgh and I was not as sad as I thought I would be when I heard the news. But I was always reminded of her death out of the blue, when when I was cooking and thinking about her cooking habits, or I suddenly realised she was gone when I spoke of her. These pieces and changes of emotion I would like to record, and I would also like to draw down some of my life with my grandmother, my memories of her. This project is a comic about my own feelings and it was based on the death of my grandmother. My grandmother died in the second month after I arrived in Edinburgh and I was not as sad as I thought I would be when I heard the news, perhaps because I had always imagined it. But I was always reminded of her death out of the blue, when I was watching a funny video and thinking I shouldn't be so happy, or when I was cooking and thinking about her cooking habits, or I suddenly realised she was gone when I spoke of her. These pieces and changes of emotion I want to record, and I also like to draw down some of my life with my grandmother, my memories of her. Currently, I have only completed the content of the first chapter. It mainly tells the story of the early stages of my grandmother's illness in chronological order. My initial plan was to create a comic book of around seventy pages, so I will continue to illustrate the story in the later stages. The final chapter will focus on expressing emotions and insights.
