Drache Brokks
illustration, UncategorizedI sometimes do drawings like this as present together with the book. This actually for my grandmother. The reason why Brooks plays an electric guitar is that she doesn´t approve my main hobby besides the one I made my profession ( I love Stratocasters, but mine is sunburst not red) ….. This is watercolor and pencil.
Here is the link tho the making of the book:

By the way I just finished the Diercke Kinderatlas. Hurray!
Drache Brokks Sketches and Ink Drawing
illustration, UncategorizedThe publisher (Lappan im Carlsen Verlag) I am working for has allowed me to show the sketches for the book I am working on at Illu16, which are also showcased at the exhibition. My original concept was to show how my pictures evolve. There wasn´t enough space to exhibit these stages, so I am showing this at my blog. This picture was made last weekend. First there are several pencil sketches. I put them together digitally and use this as basis for a drawing with ink and pen. I did a sperate layer using water colour but because I had to finish this very quickly I did part of the coloring digitally.
By the way, no dragons will be harmed during the making of this book (he is just a little sick and is transported to a doctor…)
