Illustration and Imitation

There's Artist's in Them There Books

 looking at some of my favorite illustrators work

I love the work of Liz Clements and so I wanted to create something in that light pastel colouring.

 

This is my image and I'm quite happy with it, I feel however that working half digital and half traditional really suits my work flow and i want to experiment with it more 

possession and obsession

Demonic influences of a Baptised Girl

Hell in the eyes of the faithless and sacred.

Working on images to relate to the proverb hell hath no fury like a woman scorned; I really like the emotion range with this proverb, it's all dark eerie and demonic.

I want to make a small textured book for my pathway finial piece which will need a typography piece to set the proverb and level in the book. the level relates to the difficultly to progress in the narrative world, each level brings more eerie and dark themes and images.

Here is a sample of the typography that will accompany the images.

Nercrophobia, looking at the relationship between fear and lust and the proverb don't speck ill of the dead or dead men don't tell tales.

Looking at dead men don't tell tales, of don't speck ill of the dead but without ever saying the word dead.

Looking at the proverb the darkest hour is just before dawn, using scanned antlers as background

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, my current typography proverb to be done in this style, i tried to get the image to look like they were burning in the fires of hell.

Looking at a possible imagery to reflect the proverb See no Evil, I love the contrasts in the eyes and how they block the real eyes from seeing.

Stigmata

Illustration of the deaf.

Hear No Evil

The last image in a trio of images relating to stigmata with the heading Hear No Evil.

This one isn't my favourite, but it dose have an eloquence and charm I don't think I expected the piece to have, so I'm really pleased with my work on digital mix-media images. 

Also going up to Sheffield fro an interview or two, may have to have another cheeky brake due to my course, much more on it later in the week!
