Developing Images in Picture Book Illustration

Based on the firstly sketched red house, I enjoyed developing the snowy images into a realistic scene and an illustration! This process is much like a "Colour Rough" called in picture book illustration. If the image conveys the atmosphere, it's successful. First, I created the landscape after snowing. Don’t ask me if Dundas Valley has snow. 

The original image is here. A red house on an open field was very appealing in Dundas Valley in 2018. Ants bit me. Only a soft breeze talked to me. A quiet and rich afternoon.

The original image inspired me to create the night scene, below. I explored images.  In this illustration, I added a character, a rabbit. “The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth. – Jean Cocteau.” Imagination and creativity are our wings. Let's have fun. 
Friends, Stay Safe and Happy Painting at home!
Thank you for visiting and encouragements.

    1. Oh, sweet Blaga, yes, indeed! I once enjoyed snow in Japan. So, it gives me idea of snowy landscapes. Do you have snow? Stay safe, Blaga. ((Hugs)), special thanks, Sadami
