Hey gang, here is my finished Wizard of OZ piece for the Illustration theme show at Montserrat on Feb 15th. I wanted to expand on the technique I used for the coffee girl painting before this one and print my final sketch on my watercolor paper (which my new printer is doing a great job of) and inking it with water proof per to maintain my sketch line work, then going in with watercolors. I'm pretty happy with the out come so far but want to experiment a bit more till I find the right balance. I feel like I want more of a sketchy feel to the line work in the end, just got to loosen up a but more when I ink. The theme I went with was a quote from the movie when Dorothy is saying her good byes and at the end says "Oh Scarecrow I think I'll miss you most of all". Take it any way you like but I say something when on between the two of them at some point that we missed ;) enjoy!
