You must check out Lynne Chapman's blog post today. She has posted a fun video on how she creates her illustrations with pastel. She's working on a new book called Swap! about Lucy, who turns into a dog. Very fun! Watch the video all the way to the end as she does with the palm of her hand what I do in Photoshop. :) So cool to see an artist have the nerve to create artwork with delicate pastels and not fear making a mistake. I guess it's much like painting in watercolor. I, on the otherhand, would have put that delicate pattern on the chair in a photoshop layer!
Also check out her previous posts, as Lynne generously talks about her process throughout the creation of this book. She is just one of my favorite children's illustrators!
Thanks so much for all your kind words Deb and for the plug - much appreciated!
