This post is part of a series documenting my process of illustrating the picture book Dream Boats (author Dan Bar-el, pub. Simply Read Books). The entire series of posts is archived here.
View a slideshow of all the work-in-progress images including first sketches, reference material, mistakes, redraws, and tests, to final art at a much larger size, here.
This small detail is stunning, so the entire piece must be amazing! I love the pencil work showing through the wash of colour.
I’ll look forward to the finished book becoming available for us to see and own.
