52: The Harvest

From that last batch of children's book illustrations last semester I've settled on a process of sorts- it's still fairly haphazard and changes in slight ways for each picture, but it's incredibly nice to feel this sort of security.    I start with colored lineart, do a series of differently colored inkwashes, build onto that with watercolor and marker, and then go to town with colored pencil and gouache.  Here's a couple progress shots illustrating the process, followed by a small gif:

 



And that's that!  :]
