Hey look! It’s the thumbs I’ll be presenting for critique along with a developed sketch of one of them! (I’m leaning heavily toward #3).

My thumbnails for this year’s Illustration Masterclass. I am doing A Midsummer Night’s Dream!
I am so creeped out by the way Oberon acts toward Titania: because she is willful and refuses to bow to his demand to give up a thing he wants, he drugs her in her sleep with the goal that she have sex with an animal and be so humiliated that she capitulate to his wishes.
I want this to be a pretty romantic Pre-Raphealite-esque painting at first glance and something that makes the viewer uncomfortable at second look.
(the first six thumbnails are from when I was emotionally exhausted from crashing out and unable to art at all.)

Tristan and Isolde
Oil on gessoed illustration board, 21”x13”
Unvarnished, and not a great photo, but done! Aaa! I am so proud of this piece it scares me a little.

Hello I am reblogging myself because I uploaded the newer, significantly better photo of the painting and I actually do want this version to get seen!

The Illustration Master Class 2012 is starting in two weeks. On my blog, I’m talking about the beginning of my progress!

Tristan and Isolde. Oh man oh man the sound I made when I saw it was an option? It was not dignified.
