Artist's Comments

Another illustration assignment from fall semester junior year. This was for a contest for a literature magazine- so it was supposed to have something to do with art and reading... or something like that. This is around the time I really started getting the hang of watercolors.

This picture is absolutely gorgeous. I think the most stunning thing about it is the sky. I love how you used very simple shapes and colors to create that sense of the swirling clouds. It's just enough, not too much. It's fantastic. I hope I can one day use watercolors in such a skillful way. :+fav:

Beautifully done! The rendering is amazing enough, but something about the distribution and angle of the scene makes it much more mysterious and tantalizing than it would have been otherwise. So perfect considering the subject! I love the chosen colors and strong shadow-work. :D Your skill is truly admirable.

Keep it up! :highfive:

"I'll ride a starship, across the universe divide...
Until I reach the other side...
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can.
Or I may become a highwayman again.
Or I may simply be a simple drop of rain...
But I will remain..."
