IF: Book
The challenge at Illustration Friday (IF) this week is to illustrate ‘book’. Here’s one of my dreamy flower girls with her books. I am keeping the pen style for IF, helps me practice my line artwork. I just bought a set of red Moleskine Cahier Sketchbook for me to carry around in my handbag. One for IF, one for reproduction of Boys & Girls and another one has yet to be determined.
Do leave me your comments. Thanks!

Vera, this one is drawn on a sketchbook. Not that big. Not selling as but if you want I can reproduce on drawing paper.
emila
Hehhe the background is quite dark because I want to bring out the subject.

Lovely, lovely lines! You have a great way with ink! Her hat is fabulous, and the touch of color on her cheeks is perfect!

As usual… saya suka gugirl2 kak.emi yang comel2 niii 😀 it takes 2 hours???? kalau saya, hurm x tahulah ambil masa berapa lama… lagi nak buat garis2 halus, kalau bagi kat saya.. bengkang bengkok lah jawabnya…hehehehe
imaisha
wow, background took longer time to make than the subject padahal nampak hitam putih je o.O
that really amazes me!
imaisha
hehe.. sama la kita.. kalau saya, part yg susah tu dah skip dah. takpun improvise dgn buat something yg lebih mudah. kalau tak, blh give up dibuatnya nak buat line art yg begini detail.. mau terhenti separuh jalan..
