This is my 17th and practically consecutive Illustration Friday. For the entire semester I did an Illustration for every week. WOW! My school semester is over now and I also graduated from MCC Longview! Yay! (Now onto UCM to get my degree!)
If you are confused about the pictures then let me explain, I wanted to draw 2-3 pictures conveying a story rather than one. So instead of spending huge amounts of time on one picture I spread it out onto three pictures.
So in order to create a clearer mental picture of the setting and the characters I wrote a short story regarding the topic this week, which was , "Hatch." Basically this girl is wandering through a dreary and dense forest....for some reason. She comes upon ruins from centuries before and as she is walking through a hatch pops up out of the ground and a boy with a glowing stone invites her to go below ground. Taking the long ladder down they stand in a huge cavern and he shows her a beatiful scene. Magic? Who knows! ^_^
I love the colors and the contrast! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI keep wanting to ask you but I always have something else on my mind. Why is the girl holding her dress down? Just curious...
ReplyDeleteAw, to the pressing issue. ^_^ As I was drawing it I realized that that scene could be misconstrued as what you mentioned...but if you look at her body movement and position she is actually NOT holding her dress down....(IE to avoid the eyes of any below) She was walking along and a hatch was randomly thrown open. She quickly steps back in surprise, clinging to her dress as some sort of support...or in a natural reaction..or something like that. But I will press the issue that I wasn't aiming for a perfect scene. I was depicting movement and story. Such concerns would've been hammered out otherwise! ^_^ thanks for the comment!
