Here is the finished illustration for page two. I painted this on vellum bristol using golden fluid acrylics and I did a little bit of texture using prismacolor. I also had to do some minor digital edits to make the colors match my original as close as possible. Overall it turned out well. This painting took me a little over three days to complete. At this rate I hope to have most if not all the pages painted by the end of December. I do have to teach classes this fall and lesson plans will certainly occupy most of my time. It will be a challenge to balance my time between creating quality lesson plans for my classes as well as painting the illustrations for my book.
The good news is that I do not start teaching until after labor day so I have a little over a month to work on my book. We shall see how many pages I manage to complete. Onto page three! FYI: Just in case you are wondering where page one is, I am painting these in the order I drew them. Page two was originally page one.
