Childrens Book Illustrations A WIP

I am on the final stretches of a very exciting project and I’m sure that the recipient of these paintings wont mind me writing a little blog piece about them.

SL270348

The illustrations are to go with a sweet childrens story about a woodcutter and a squirrel. It has been a pleasure developing the ideas for each page and painting them up. They aren’t quite finished yet but wanted to share as they are nearly there.

There are 14 paintings at the moment and the 15th will be the cover. Each has been developed using CAD and sketches but the final pieces are painted in acrylic onto paper.

I’ll post all the finished pieces when their done.

Thanks for reading, see you soon
