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.

Life drawings

 I can't stress enough the importance of life drawing... It makes you understand shapes, anatomy, gestures, it is good for your drawing skills, it's a place to experiment freely, and also it's a lot of fun!
