From sketch to final drawing




I'm still very busy working on the drawings for this educational project. I try mixing various techniques, which I love! Above you can see my first sketch and on the right you can see the final drawing.
Since this is for children aged 8-11, I use bright colors that pop. I want to give them the feeling "THIS is a story I want to read!". Hopefully, I've managed to create that feeling...

    Your work is very appealing. I really like your showing both sketch and final drawing. It's so interesting to see both side by side. Very beautiful.
