"Shadows"

"Shadows"


(details)

This is one of those ideas that I don't know where it came from but it seemed to make sense. Plus, it includes my three favorite Wild Things. I am pleased as well, for this piece has those "terrible yellow eyes."

In other news, there are some incredible artists lined up to contribute to this project. I could not be more pleased. I'll be posting my own contributions these first few Fridays but in a couple weeks we'll start seeing some contributors. These people are amazing. And I'm terribly excited.

was this all true watercolor like your last piece?

It's all watercolor and gouache + digital color grading. Pulled a James Jean trick there at the last minute. You can see "behind the scenes" over on my main blog here

Excellent! is this 500 series Bristol?

the JJ trick was worth it! I love the final color swap.

Nice! I love the whole concept of this project. "Where The Wild Things Are" had a similar influence in my life. Although I am getting into the illustration game late, I've always been involved in art. See my own homage to Mr. Sendak here: http://redheadedstepchildblog.blogspot.com/2008/03/illustration-friday-homage.html
