Illustration Friday: Baby

Illustration Friday: Baby

Colored Pencil and Graphite Pencil

For this week's theme of "Baby", I thought about my children. No matter how old they are, they will always be my babies. First I drew a picture of them in graphite pencil when they were little (about seven and a half years ago). Then I drew a colored pencil picture of them from this year (they were so excited about their ice cream!). When both were done I cut them in strips and combined them into one picture. It is kind of bizarre, but I liked the effect.

Pen

This week's theme for Illustration Friday is "worry". I thought of the famous Depression era photo by Dorothea Lange. You can read the worry all over her face. I focused in on the woman's face and made the shading with words of things that make people worry. Be sure to zoom in to see the words.
