2018: 125-131/365


In my last post I mentioned that I took part in the Illustrator Challenge at the New England SCBWI Conference.  The theme of the challenge was Fairy Tale Mash-up, so I created "Swinederella": a combination of Cinderella, The Three Little Pigs, and a dash of Little Red Riding Hood.  It was created using pencil, watercolor, and Photoshop.

Since I love seeing how other artists create their art, I thought it would be fun to share images of my process from start to finish...

1. Thumbnail Sketch


2. Character Design


3. Clean Sketch


4. Watercolor Washes


5. Black & White Underpainting


6. Starting to Add Color


7. Final Image (after many, many layers!)


I'm still figuring things out in Photoshop, but I have a feeling that I'm really going to enjoy this way of working!
