Some recent editorial work for a magazine. These are a nice diversion from children’s illustration.

Hey folks. I’m posting another tear sheet sample of some work I did a few months back for the Nov/Dec issue of Children’s Ministry magazine. Five times a year I do a spot illustration to accompany a story about people’s experiences working in children’s ministry at their church, etc.. They are encouraging stories and I look forward to them bi-monthly. This month’s article was no exception. I am blessed to be able to add a little touch of something to these.
Below: My illustration with the article in the spread.
Below: The rough next to the final art. Not much difference, really, and I kept the woman and frame, just adding a few touches like the rose (since her name was Rose) and reworked the lettering.
Some things I’ve noted as I work in this style (and hope you’ll find of interest, too!): My roughs don’t usually start out as line work as they do when I’m doing the line work or cartoon-like style. I go straight for the watercolor brushes, painting my rough in this more immediate style. It forces me to be more spontaneous and let go of conventions and standards, such as perspective. It’s a very refreshing way for me to work and I am enjoying the results.

I’ve been enjoying using the painterly style for a few jobs I’ve had lately. I did this small editorial illustration for Children’s Ministry magazine’s Jan/Feb 2010 issue. It’s a fun style to work in and seems to be coming along nicely.
