Moonlight Talk for the OutSmart Project 2010

This illustration was created for the above named OutSmart Project 2010. It is a "fan project" based on a brief which invites illustrators to create whatever illustration they have in mind with a Smart in it. The project will be published digitally and also presented online later this year. If you want to take part and haven't heard about it yet check out the OutSmart Blog. You will also find the brief there.

I decided to give my illustration a little lovestory. The two lovers are on a shore in the moonlight. Maybe it is their first date, maybe they just enjoy having each other for whatever time their lives have been entangled. As to emphasize the romantic feeling it just had to be a moonlit night and of course they got to this beautiful place with their little smart.

whale linoprints

I enjoyed making the last two linoprints so much that doing another two just felt about right. They are again available over at kelly light's wonderful blog ripple for a donation of 10$ each. (Don't know for sure when they will be up tho.) The money goes straight to The Institute for Marine Mammal Studies and The International Bird Rescue Research Center in order to help the animals threatened by the oil spill.

jellyfish for the ripple project

I've been experimenting a little with watercolour and lino cut. The two prints shown above are available over at kelly light's wonderful blog ripple for a donation of 10$ each. The money goes straight to The Institute for Marine Mammal Studies and The International Bird Rescue Research Center in order to help the animals threatened by the oil spill.
