“She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes…”

~Lord Byron

My “Portrait of Night-time” design is up for voting at Shirt.Woot! Allons-y!

Thanks! :-) ~Anne Kelley

9. some owls just like to be alone: influence for IF

The prompt this week for Illustration Friday is, influence. In this picture, the little birdie is trying to influence his owl friend. He wants the owl to stay and party with the other birds. (There’s also a version of this picture in color.)

The little birdie isn’t very good at influencing anyone yet, or maybe some birds don’t like parties.

His owl friend flies off to be by himself again. Why do you think he didn’t stay?

19. Halloween in August

JacketFlap tags: halloween, children's book, cat, night, mouse, nighttime, mice, sketch, pumpkin, illustration, Add a tag

With the adjustments to the sketches for my book dummy now complete, I thought I'd take a short break before starting the painting phase to work on a promotional piece. Continuing on the theme of cats, I added the last details to this sketch this morning:
This piece is actually a re-make of a painting I did back in art school. If I remember correctly, I believe the assignment was to illustrate a cover for Cricket magazine either on the theme of Halloween or possibly for the month of October. I had been fairly pleased with the original composition, but have had it in mind for some time that it would be nice to revisit this image and put more time into the final art than I was able to as a student. I remember back in school I had originally drawn the little mouse to the far right much more plainly and it had been the excellent suggestion by one of my classmates to dress the mouse up for Halloween and have it trick-or-treating. I think that simple suggestion really helped to make the painting.

I did these little star gazing frogs a while back, but I thought it could work for this week's theme. I'm hoping to make time to participate in Illustration Friday again! Check out the IF site, as there's always such great work each week around each theme.

22. Day and Night: Movie to Picture Book

Day & Night by Teddy Newton

The Pixar short film that accompanied Toy Story 3 in theaters has been transformed into a picture book. Showing the same style, humor and charm of the film, this book captures the interplay between day and night. Told in short sentences on black paper, the two characters immediately see their differences but through their interaction develop a friendship. In the end, they discover they have a lot more in common than they had thought at first glance. There is a wonderful whimsy about their interaction as they both use their bodies as a canvas for communication. Each shows off the wonders of their time of day. There are parades, rainbows and butterflies for Day. Night responds with fireworks, outdoor movies and fireflies. Told mostly in images, the story will appeal to young and old.

Newton’s illustrations carry this story, infusing it with appeal. The use of the black background makes the characters really pop. This creates a dynamic look and feel for the book. The most effective piece of the book is the ending when day changes to night and night changes to day. When their bodies fit together to create the horizon and to complete the sunset and dawn, it is very visually arresting.

Children who have seen the short film will enjoy this picture book version, but so will children who are looking for a friendly book with inviting illustrations. Appropriate for ages 4-6.

Reviewed from copy received from Chronicle Books.

23. The New Sketch Journal...

By: DIANE SMITH, on 4/1/2011

JacketFlap tags: salad, night, journal, Panera, sketchbook, Add a tag

I finished reading about the last artist in “An Illustrated Life” and I am now inspired to keep my own sketch journal. My sketchbooks have always been for working out project ideas, random notes and doodles, and a few studies. But, I really like the idea of chronicling details and memories. It will also keep me drawing, even though I don’t really feel like I have time to focus on a drawing project.

So, last night it was 76 degrees (F) at 8:00 p.m., the kids were in the process of eating (yes, a late dinner - it’s like that with us). I thought I’d take the opportunity to go to Panera with my sketch journal to sit outside with a salad and draw the people and things I observed. Of course, by the time I got everyone settled and drove over there, it was 8:40 and they closed at 9:00!

Well, I was determined to do something, so I sat outside in the dim lighting and tried to scribble something down. This is my feeble attempt at a sketch journal page - my salad (which was tasty) in it’s To Go container. The closing staff was folding up umbrellas at the tables all around me and probably thought it strange that I was drawing my food, but there wasn’t much else to draw and little time to draw it. But, at least I started - I have a “first page” and look forward to more.

While reading through the book, it really struck me how every artist commented on having to slow down and take in the moment, and that everything about that moment is clear in their minds even 20 years later (Lord knows, I‘m not getting any younger and the mind‘s not getting any sharper). And, what a great thing to pass along to your children - hopefully something of value to your descendents - a little insight into the life of someone they’ll never get to meet.

25. Illustration Friday ~ Midsummer Night

JacketFlap tags: night, Ginger Nielson, summer, Add a tag

This is an image I had just finished. It is more of a study piece than something I will be using. It has evolved from a sketch that was much larger, but I condensed it for the sake of the characters.

I do, however, plan to use this sketch, but as a daylight illustration.. and a fairly large one at that.
