As we come to the end of the second phase of Foundation and I have some rare spare time on my hands I thought I'd write a series of posts about my work so far!

As seen in a previous post I have been illustrating the book To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. My sketchbook work was all simple, picking out key imagery from important chapters. After lots of photoshop trial and error I produced several minimalistic title pages for the book, each displaying a recognisable silhouette. 

As we have now specialised in our subjects at Foundation we have been set our first project to work on over the Christmas holiday. The brief we have been given is to illustrate a chapter of a book we had to choose from a given list. I had never read any of the books on the list we were given so I got straight to it and bought myself a copy of To Kill A Mockingbird. To my surprise it is actually a fantastic book and I'm really excited to illustrate a chapter.
