Olive's Circus

"Olive's Circus" pages 1-4

Pages 3-4 are still in progress...I'm playing with the "CIRCUS" sign, but this is the general idea. 1 and 2 are single pages and 3 and 4 combine to form a spread.

Board Book Progress

More progress. I'm trying to knock back the textures, it's a problem I keep having...any suggestions?

Board Book

OSW Finals

Still working

I've been really down on myself artistically lately. I've been trying new things and while they've been enlightening and I've learned from them, they've caused a lot of frustration and made me feel pretty inadequate.

More Progress...

More progress on my childrens book illustrations. Any advice for final direction? I'm going to add some streamers/furniture in the window to the one where she's in the window and some people to the ballroom in the elongated one.

Still Working...

I've started the second one now...I'm hoping to have all three worked out pretty well before Monday so I can get feedback and finish them up/print them Tuesday.

Children's Book 1/3 Images In Progress

In my Children's Book class we're picking 1 of 3 stories to do 3 illustrations from. I picked one called, I think, "On Swan's Wings" or something to that effect...here's my first image in progress. I decided to do this cut paper appearing method I've been dying to try (minimal linework used) with textures since it looks awesome, is so far really fun to do, and will give me good results in a shorter amount of time than the thin lined drawing with microns I'm doing in Illustration 5. (The 3 full color images are due this coming Wednesday).
