Illustration Friday: Worn

Here is Samuel the Otter posing in his favorite sweater. It may be old and worn, but his Grandmother Pearl made it for him years ago and it keeps him "Oh, so cozy!"

Sketched, inked onto Bristol using light table and Micron Pens, Scanned at 1200 dpi B&W into Photoshop where coloring and shading was done.

Illustration Friday: Drifting

This little character is from the book my husband and I are collaborating on. Isn't he sweet? I did the usual: sketched, inked with my light box and micron pens onto Bristol, scanned at 1200 dpi b&w (very nice and crisp) and then colored in Photoshop.
