It's been a couple of days since my last post. Life kept me busy but here finaly is another new illustration. The idea of a sunny day with a family came to me, well I don't know why as it seems to be constantly raining since a couple of weeks. So probably this is my wishful thinking, that the sun will return soon.
After sticking to watercolours for my last illos, I went again digital with this one. I also tried a new format. Thought it suited the whole scenery fine and I felt it gives those figures some space to actually use their "equipment" and cycle along the way.
well María, for your name i suppose you understand spanish: ¡Hermosa ilustración!!!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful :') makes me think of my summer vacation
ReplyDeleteHello Maria, I love the freshness in this. Good call for the long format and that great contrast between the delicate sky and the rusting bow of the ship. The shadows are very luminiscent.

ReplyDeletemaria, can't tell you enough how much I love this illustration — especially the ship and those clouds and that pathway with wall ... they combine to create a mood and a stylistic signature that's really, really appealing to me.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see more in this style.
It's a great style for a story-book, really.
The ship is my favorite of favorites here.
I will print it out and put it on my wall ...
Thanks for all the great comments everyone ^___^
ReplyDeleteIt's so beautiful Maria. You've really captured something here and I just love looking at it. The format is perfect and you really thought out a lot of things in the design and details. I mean, you've always been fabulous, but something is happening here where you're just catapulting to some higher level!
ReplyDeleteYou always make me gasp! Gorgeous work, Maria! Oh goodness, the texture of the wood and the shadows, the SHADOWS! I love the bicycle shadows. I can feel the breeze. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteNice mood here...the shadows and hair blowing in the wind are neat details!
