Basic Illustrations For Locations

When drawing out the basic illustrations for the locations in the book, I chose to use a pencil first then go over the lines in fine liner. I also chose to use watercolour paints when adding colour to the images as this was simplistic and more like the style of E.H. Shepard who used watercolour and ink pen when illustrating for Winnie The Pooh and Wind In The Willows. I intend to work into these images with other media such as watercolour pencil or layering different shades of watercolour paint with a thinner brush to add more detail, depth and texture. This will create more of an aesthetic appeal and make the images more interesting to look at.
