Astrid's sketchbook glimpse


This is one of my first sketches I did for the picture book contest I was working on this past month der-meefisch.de (I mentioned that contest in an earlier post). It's done and submitted! Phew, that was way more work thank I expected, even if I did "just" the dummy and 3 finalized artworks, and the text was done by someone else. Wow. But it was a great experience, and I definitely learned a lot - at the very least how much time it takes, lol. Here, I'm just posting one of the first sketches. If you're interested in seeing part of the dummy, and a glimpse of a finalized image, you can view them on my blog: www.potatomammadesign.blogspot.com.

I was going to say that the elephant is definitely awesome...but I'm switching my comment to the camel. That is an amazing camel.
