Sun & Snow Illustration
Tuesday, January 16, 2007 1:04 PM
I figure that I haven't been doing a lot of illustrations. I like doing them, but I have a hesitation in making such compositions because 1)I have low confidence in my abilities to draw and 2)drawing complex objects can be difficult without a Wacom tablet. But hey, a girl has to start somewhere.
This composition was sort of inspired by the recent bout of cold weather we've been having here. It's almost always sunny during the day, but frelling cold at night. Not that it snows down here in sunny California, but it does feel very nippy late at night. It's also inspired by a cover I was doing for my school newspaper that never made it to finals. This was mostly due to the fact that we didn't have pictures for the event (which was an art exhibit on weather) at the time I was making the cover, so I was forced to make a cover in case the pictures never came in before having to put the newspaper to print. Of course, we did receive the pictures in the end, but it also meant scrapping my illustration. Oh well.Link of the day:
