Tomorrow my family and I (minus my brother :(!) are heading off on holiday, we're going to the Peak District and have rented a little cottage, it should be really fun. I'm taking a small toolbox of art equipment with me so I can paint and sketch some landscapes, and hopefully some wild animals if, A. I'm luck enough to spot some, and B. they stay still long enough! typically I had to go and injure my drawing hand two days before we go, but I will endure as I'm really looking forward to this :)Above is my second book cover of the trilogy "His Dark Materials" by Philip Pullman, This is the one I am most proud of, and I feel is the strongest, I really wanted to show the way the book made me feel when I was younger, sort of all creepy and alone. For inspiration I watched the old film Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari a silent German expressionist film, and it really aided with the final outcome of this piece, I rendered these a little differently, as its not one whole piece, each section I did individually and place together on Photoshop and I also made all the textures on the card by sponging paint (it was messy :P)!
Well, have a great week!
