Responsive - Roald Dahl Illustrations - Mr Twit 2

Above is the original Idea I had for a finished piece of Mr Twit Using found photographs for texture, however this technique i feel would not fit in with the rest of the series, due to the texture being digitally painted on in the first illustration.

For effect and a reference to the description that Roald Dahl gives of Mr Twit i included Bits of food in his beard, colouring them brightly and including a comical fishbone in there as a signifier as to what those bits actually were in his beard.

With the painted textures I mimicked the colours found in the textural tweed and wood photographs, also adding some darker colours to the background to give the impression that his surroundings are grubby and unclean, much like the description the reader receives when they read the book.
