Emulations - E.H. Shepard

When creating these emulations, I tried to draw out characters from particular scenes in the same style as the artist. I drew them out in pencil first then added outlining and detail with ink and a dip pen. I made sure to add tone by cross-hatching in certain places whilst also layering lines and small directional lines where they were needed. Then, I added colour to some illustrations using watercolour paints and tried to create tone by using darker and lighter variants of the same colour in certain places. I feel that this worked well as the images are very aesthetically pleasing to look at as well as emulating the style of Shepard's work.
