One more Christmas Card Study

After visiting my son's blog and viewing a photo posted of their daughters decorating their tree, I tried another look for our Christmas card.

Christmas Card Thumbnails

Trying out some ideas for a Christmas card. Not sure about the poem. Just wanted to see if words would look okay up there. Might leave just the "JOY" in the shadows and include some carol lyrics inside the card. I know it's late and I probably won't get these off on time, but I figure the Christmas "season" extends to the New Year. There's something about the warmth of the more yellow one that appeals to me and I'm usually a blue person. Ideas anyone?

MIC Assignment - Sketches

Prior to the Master Illustration Class, we were emailed an assignment to prepare. We were given several book cover descriptions to choose from. I chose Plant Life which depicted human form with any type of plant we wanted. We had to come prepared with thumbnail sketches and photo references. They wanted our ideas fairly worked out with an open mind for any changes and/or improvements they would make. Here are the two thumbnails I came up with.

Thumbnails for Future Projects

Here are some of the thumbnails for Dallas's portrait and one for the Eragon illustration.
