This illustration was the final non colour draft of this particular scene. The composition works well I think because I have managed to include all of the elements that I wanted to during my development phase of this illustration.
I opted to keep the composition very minimalist and thought about this carefully as the brief asks for the series of illustrations to work as a set - so I would have to carry this through into the other pieces that were required by the brief.
The brief also asks for something that would compliment the roald dahl literary state's logo, so I felt this simple design with fairly bold line work would really befit the logo when combined with bright enticing colours.
This image here Is the final design, I opted to add in texture to the image as it looked very flat and I did this by using a dabbing brush texture and layering up the colours using the photoshop layers.
I also opted to use very bold colours for the musical notes as a slight nod to the Roald Dahl logo.
I think think that as first illustration for this series I have done well to consider that the 3 illustrations must appear to look as if they are part of a series. I have carefully considered this by making sure that each of the approaches that I make for the other characters are similar to each other - e.g bold lines, simple composition and textured colours.
