.I had several ideas for this but opted out for the simplest (and fasted to compose) since I've got tons of freelance right now (YAY!) *Drawn in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
It's interesting... this whole Illustration Friday thang is making me think and draw a little "darker" than what I normally do on my own. I like that. I hope to be able to push things further when my time frees up a little more.
Beautiful. I like the silent mood, and the cold blue goes very well with the theme.

ReplyDeleteI really like this Paige. Very meditative. It's like, you feel for this character's loneliness but at the same time you want to leave her alone with her thoughts. Beautiful.

ReplyDeletethank you very much guys and gals.
ReplyDeleteDenis: if only I could have desribed my illustrations intentions so beautifully. Thank you and I cannot wait to see what you dream up this week.
Ms. Elle: the TRAVEL drawing is just a pencil sketch on cheap xerox paper, scanned and colored in photoshop.

ReplyDeleteHello Paige.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a great style. Somehow I've overlooked your blog... Illustration Friday has gotten so big, I rarely have time to look at everyones work. I'm glad I found you.
