Scratchboard




My current assignment for Illustration techniques here at SCAD-ATL is a set of three illustrations for a fairy tale, one large piece and two smaller spot illustrations. I chose "The Green Bird," my favorite Chinese fairytale (is it still a fairy tale if there are no fairies in it? Is it a folktale if it has magical elements? anyway...)
Top: sketch for large illustration (final here, bottom, spot #1 finished.
Cheers!

Red is the Official Accent Color for the apartment.


Yesterday there was a huge thunderstorm (including The Loudest Thunderclap Ever!) It reminded me of Thailand; it was nice.

Mother Superior

A drawing I did in my Drawing for Illustrators sketchbook. With details. I like the nun hugging the pony.





Also, progress shot of a drawing I'm working on for class. Probably about 1/4 done (?). 18x24. (Note: more here!

From the Graphic Novel Front

Some process shots from a little bit of The Pearl Wars (working title!) that I was able to squeeze out last week.







Some bug snuggling, right before things start going wrong. :)

And some collages I made on cards.



The inside of this one is a pop-up and is really cool, but my camera cord is currently AWOL so...
edit: found it!
