visual language: egyptian sequential art

Egyptian sequential art was a form to tell a story back in the days when they didn't have advance technology we have, they would draw different events that had happened. this way of conveying a story has been happening for a long time and is an interesting way to communicate a story of events.

what i love about this particular type is the fact they drew them on walls with the inks of them time which were vibrant in terms of the gold and reds shown in the image below:
This form of communication was very effective in understanding what happened within history, most of the art of that time were done by different artist but all followed the similar format, although they would change a bit of the colours but mainly stick to reds and gold colours. i would like to have a go at developing this format of story telling in future projects because of the way it is presented to the viewer .
