My process of children's book illustration
From conceptual drawing to watercolor painting
Watercolor painting
larger version |
The most anticipated moment is when I start painting. After months and months of drawing, research and interviews, I was finally ready to start the watercolor paintings.
I start with the painting that excites me the most, then proceed to the other pieces. I keep all the paintings arranged in order in my studio, so that I can relate the one that I'm working on to the rest. This helps to make sure all the paintings for the book are unified.To learn more about this children's book and other illustrations, visit the Finding Joy children's book section of this web site.
