IF: Water

I hate deadlines. But here you go, the next part of the story. Not my favorite and I did most of this tired after finishing another illustration. But I will accomplish my goal this month.

IF: Mirror

Missed the deadline for this week but I still wanted to continue the sequence.
So here is the image for 'mirror'.
I wanted to go along the theme of the thing you fear the most is in your mind. This girl has created in her mind her worst fears and so will jump at anything, even a simple reflection of herself. Remember this is a sequence and this is only the second in the series, so check out the other illustrations to get the full story. :)

IF: Book

Happy October Everyone!

         I want to get back to having a sequential story along with the themes from Illustration Friday. So here is the first of a series, I will see how the story evolves as we get new themes from I.F. It will be scary though in respect for October cheer.

This particular piece I tried to focus on texture and I did have a lot of fun with that. I need to play more with the Korean paper I have recently picked up so we shall see what I will do next. 

IF: Bounce

Illustration done in a half hour, bounce. Next topic please, this one wasn't my favorite.

IF: Lonely

Thank you all for last post's support, I never dreamed to have been chosen to be the highlight of the week in IF. It was a great honor.

I am still playing with textures and styles but I'm liking what my style is developing into. This piece was done digitally though I am trying to create an image that you would think was done traditionally. Any criticism is welcome. :)

IF: Suspend

Well, it took a while but I turned out an illustration. I thought long and hard at what would be best to illustrate 'suspend'. Then the other day I was attacked by a small 'harmless' spider and the idea hit me. There was a perfect example of something suspended in air. The spider seemed to just float there... right before I smashed it :) But it did inspire me and here is the result.

IF: Shiny

 

I seem to be developing a liking to Magpies. They are really cool birds and really fun to design. I learned that some of them like to collect shiny objects to impress potential mates. So I was a little inspired by that. It was a fun quick illustration.
