A surrealistic piece I did ages ago. It’s possibly the illustration I’m most proud of. I had put a lot of time and effort developing this style for myself. It borrows aspects of anime movie style illustration from movies such as – Ghost in the shell and Patlabor, aswell as every Hayao Miyazaki film. It was hand drawn. I started with the Geisha then added the other elements separately similarly to how an animator might build up a scene. Detail:

One of 26 images for a new manuscript for a children’s picture book…… this is a combination of photography, vector, drawings and a special recipe for the overall effect. I wanted to stay with the shadows because I love the challenge of allowing little ones to use their imagination to visualize the character they want to see. I started this manuscript with my youngest as my inspiration, she loves cupcakes. I had a blast writing the Lilliput picture book and my kids really enjoyed it. I am really proud of all the hard work and how it turned out and I cannot wait until it finds a home at a house. Until then I want to keep writing and make up the illustrations. I love the challenge and the expression on my kids faces with the images that I turn out. btw…. / The cupcake is actually a first attempt over a year ago to design vector art. I never deleted it, thank goodness :).
This was created in reference to the cover of Libba Bray’s novel, A Great and Terrible Beauty. It is a grid drawing piece done in colored pencil.

“Double, double toil and trouble; / Fire burn, and caldron bubble. / Fillet of a fenny snake, / In the caldron boil and bake; / Eye of newt, and toe of frog, / Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, / Adder’s fork, and blind-worm’s sting, / Lizard’s leg, and owlet’s wing,— / For a charm of powerful trouble, / Like a hell-broth boil and bubble / Double, double toil and trouble; / Fire burn, and caldron bubble” —MacBeth, William Shakespeare (1564-1616)

When I was eight I received ‘The Jungle Book’ for my Birthday. This was when the world was a much smaller place and one could imagine hidden temples with treasure in far off unexplored jungles in India and Africa, countries we knew little of. We could only visit them in books and the movies. This is my memory painting of a wonderful movie made in 1942, I didn’t get to see it on the big screen until I was in the military and Colorado College played foreign and old movies once a week. On TV it was good, on the big screen it was magnificent. Zoltán Korda was the director, Sabu Dastagir played Mowgli and narrated, music by Miklós Rózsa. If you have a chance to see the movie on the big screen do so. It’s availabe on video too. This is a first try for me to illustrate a wonderful experience. / Music, The Jungle Book FEATURED the Music Inspired Artist group Note: I just got a reproduction back, the color is outstanding. The brilliant color you see on screen is what you will get. For that bright flash of color or as a conversation piece in your decor use a small ‘Mounted Print’ on a plate easel, chic.

“One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. Which road do I take? she asked. Where do you want to go? was his response. I don’t know, Alice answered. Then, said the cat, it doesn’t matter.” / -Lewis Carroll, “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” Second artwork in my new series based off of Lewis Carroll’s “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland”. This is the my take on the Cheshire Cat, who though a smiling and logical entity, is also a bit unnerving. I chose to portray the cat as something a bit unsettling and ambiguous. “’But I don’t want to go among mad people,’ Alice remarked. / ‘Oh, you can’t help that,’ said the Cat. ‘We’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.’ / ‘How do you know I’m mad?’ said Alice. / ‘You must be,” said the Cat. ‘or you wouldn’t have come here.’” The original artwork measures 12.5×19”, and was created with mostly colored pencils and art pens and markers on burgundy Canson paper.

Illustration for part of my new Wonderland series based off of Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. ””The March Hare will be much the most interesting, and perhaps as this is May it won’t be raving mad—at least not so mad as it was in March.” – Alice (from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland) Original measures 12.5×19 inches and is a mixed media piece (acrylic, gold embossed decorative paper collage, oil pastels, colored pencils, sharpie, paint pen This is a scan so you can’t see the shining gold properly in this image, but it looks better in person.

Sixth artwork in my new Wonderland series, based off of Lewis Carroll’s “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” ”`Well!’ thought Alice to herself, `after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they’ll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn’t say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!’ (Which was very likely true.) – “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” Original artwork measures approx. 12.5×19” and was created with oil pastels, colored pencils, metaliic silver pens, and marker. This is a scan of the image, so you can’t see the silver highlights on this piece (they look gray in the scan) through Alice’s hair and dress. View more of my artwork at www.lynnetteshelley.com
