"And to think that my teacher told me that it was impossible for my jet pack to ever fly ... now how am I going to land this thing?"A pretty quick one this week--done with gouache in a Moleskine pad. And I love that in illustration, all things are possible!

I got a little carried away this week. I'm really enjoying working on hot press watercolor paper with a mix of watercolors, gouache, and pastels.

"Her legendary poise was about to be put to the test ..."
I'm still experimenting with media. This one's a blend of watercolor, gouache, and pastel on hot-pressed watercolor paper. I like this mixture a lot.
For this study, I was trying to do a few things: First, I was experimenting with gouache and pastels on illustration board instead of the usual watercolors on watercolor paper. I also wanted to suggest the presence of the Moon without directly showing it. And I wanted to create depth and a slightly ominous mood.
