Alice in Wonderland

Exploring style and technique for illustrating the adventures of Alice in Wonderland.
The illustration could use a better storytelling concept, but gives me a good idea of the mood and illustration style I am looking for.This sketch depicts the scene where Alice finds the key on the glass table, which opens the small door. This is very much the style and feel I am looking for...

Hein and Paulien



I drew these drawings for the great Hein van de Geyn and Paulien van Schaik, to thank them for playing beautiful music at my wedding. It is still unbelievable they were really there...
