1. Flying Home Part II

Yay. I just finished the final illustration for the Art Blocks for Ghana project. I decided to make a few minor changes to the final, for example the clouds don’t looks as cartoony as I initially planned them to be when I created the color comp. I wish the background were a lot smoother than it is though…but I’ve already changed it twice and I’m scared the third time would just make the whole thing look too muddy.

As you can see I was taking shots of the progress for you but unfortunately my camera ran out of battery during the process so I couldn’t document all of it…boo.


Fly Home” Acrylic on 8×8″ wood panel.

I wanted to have fun with this one so I chose to do it in a really playful style. I also chose really bright and fun colors because that’s the first thing that pops into my head when I think of Ghana or Africa in general for that matter.

I hope this little guy finds a really awesome home to live in! I hope you guys participate in the auction this coming March 2011.

Let’s help build a fantastic children’s home for the kids in Ghana! YAY!!!
