A Long Walk

i have an idea for a picture book. i've been working on this particular story for a while and put together a dummy book. a dummy book is the storytellers rough, loose, interpretation of his/her story. it lays out how the story is paced on a page by page basis and occasionally has a couple of color finishes to show prospective publishers what the final images might look like.

i had worked this one up to dummy book form some time back, but after a couple of reviews from some people in the publishing field, i wanted to go back to the drawing board and re-visualize some of the images.  the reviews weren't terrible or discouraging, just suggestions to simplify the layouts and some of the visuals.

which is what i'm working on now.

here is one of the revised compositions. at some point soon, i'm going to paint this one up. if anything, just so i can draw a bit of personal inspiration to keep this puppy moving along.

Hee. That is totally sweet.

The visual of the notes knocks me out.
