Responsive - Roald Dahl - George's Marvellous Medicine 1

Again for this illustration, the last in the series of three, I had to come up with a simple composition that would translate the scene in the novel whereby George is in the process of making a medicine.

The way I thought I thought i would do this would be to include lots of ingredient bottles and show George reaching for them and mixing them together.

The only creative problem that I ran into whilst trying to think of composition that would do this was thinking how to arrange each element.


The image below documents the idea that I took forward to the End design, It shows George on a stool reaching for ingredients on heavily stocked shelves. The character's face has a sense of concentration on it as if he is straining to reach up at a jar, something that i feel is quite relevant as George is a small boy.









Here below I was contemplating and practicing what the shape of George's Head should be.
