I joined this new blog called "Notre club de dessin" (our drawing club). All the members of this blog are invited to create an illustration every 2 weeks on a precise theme. This time around the theme was Edgard Allan Poe. I love the work of Poe, all the macabre and the darkness of his stories. I was very inspired by the theme. I decided to do an illustration based on the story THE RAVEN. I am really about the result... and I think I will continue the theme and transform it into a serie. I'll keep you updated on the process.
Hope you like the piece !
ps: you can buy a print of this piece at my etsy shop

ReplyDeleteThat is a great piece, looks like a theatrical poster. Could you tell us about your process?
ReplyDeletethanks a lot
ReplyDeleteAbout my process, this was supposed to be a digital collage but it turned out to be more hand than computer.
because the frame was done in illustrator and then I printed it and sand it with sand paper. The images was reworked with black ink. The font was mostly done by hand and then sanded with sand paper. I really wanted to have a used look. And keep the colors simple. For me, Poe is black, white, red and dirty. So I wanted to represent all that in the piece.
hope it answers your question
thanks again for your interest
sell this to me!
