Cards

We had a workshop today and we were given a newspaper photo , I got a picture of an elephant swimming the ocean and a story popped into my head about a male elephant searching for his lost love. So I drew the ending and popped it on a card :P



Puffin bookjacket, Alice in Wonderland - initial sketches




Editorial. Sometimes we need help with little decisions, too.

This is an editorial project I've just completed. It tured out very sucessful! All I would need to do for it is to make the human more visible in the image and then it would be a winner ;)

The second one is a modification from my Love Train card, I imbelished on Illustrator to complete the image as I didn't thing it was perfect.
