Bad breath :D
WIP:
Got some time to scan and work on the view of Sofijs room. Still a lot of work to do, but it’s getting there.
First version of the intro image finished. I guess there will be more versions :)
I’ve pondered how to incorporate the “hidden worlds” from my “do:s and don’s” list. In “How to fox” I will include a lot of intersections of the nature to show that under a rock, under the ground, in the tree etc, there’s more than meets the eye on the surface.
The very first version of Skunteglutten.
This little creature was
born in the attic of my childhood home, an old 2 room cottage. When I
refused to clean up, my mom would open the attic door and call for
Skunteglutten (or various other monsters, depending on the mood) to come
down and help her persuade me.
I was terrified, but I was also a
very stubborn kid with a vivid imagination. My mother used it for as
long as she could, which was a couple of months, until I worked up the
courage to go up in the attic to try to befriend all the monsters.
I
never did find Skunteglutten, but I imagined her to be something made
out of sot and old rags and stuff. She would be the friend who whispered
weird things to you, making you do stupid stuff. And her ears would be
soft to the touch and snuggable.
There will be more, lots more :)
What to keep from the old old legacy? (This picture is from like… 2005)
I still love the druids table with the marks, bright edges and weird shaped fog.
I will add loads of watercolor texture though. I do love my watercolors :)
Starting to get there with the look of the illustrations :)
Sofij will make a guest apperance in the story “how to fox”. It will be finished after the christmas/new year hollidays.
