Happy Wednesday Friends! How has your week been? Mine has definitely been different than expected. Three out of four of my kids have been sick this week and that has definitely brought its challenges. What have you been up to?
Today will be a special edition of our Meet the Maker series. My dear friend Rachel at Fia's Designs also has a blog. She wrote a great piece on how she creates her beautiful pictures of children. This particular blog post is about a picture she created of our oldest son.
Here is an excerpt from her blog.
Behind the Scenes: “Jump” illustration
Here's a behind-the-scenes look at one of my new custom illustrations "Jump". It's a photo of my friend Amber's son. She's the owner of Mt Nittany Creations, a wonderful Etsy jewelry shop with creative handmade pieces.
My Illustration Process:
- I start out with an interesting photo of a child in an expressive gesture. I study the photo to get acquainted with the posture, alignment, expression, and feeling. I visualize it already was drawn and how I might make a background design to go with it. When I get a strong visual image of the end result, then I will begin drawing.
