Warmup sketch

Plein air sketch

I had a great time painting plein air with Arne yesterday.
The sun was setting fast, so we had only about an hour to do a little sketch. In this hour, the sunlight changed dramatically, so we had to make descisions really fast. Having limited time is always good to stay extra focused, and also I find the light and colors of a sunset very beautiful.

This is me and my primitive setup...

And this is Arne, who works a bit more sophisticated...

And his painting...

Breaking up...

Book cover, from sketch to final.

 

This is a book cover illustration for Jennifer Peersmann's new book. I started with some thumbnailsketches, resulting in the asic laout sketch above. I inked the sketch . Then I experimented with some color concepts, and finally used the basic idea of the color sketch in the final illustration.
