The Squirrel & Anteater Are Out of the Bag!
HOORAH! Farfaria is now LIVE... and has published the 2 ebooks that I illustrated. Finally - the gags been lifted. So without further ado I can now show you what I've been mum about. Between mid September and early February I illustrated, An Armful of Acorns by Adrian Riding and The Greedy Ant Eater by Christine Sawinsky.
Both books were illustrated using my traditional ink and watercolor technique but with a digital twist. As these were going to be for an ebook app or is it just a book app, each page illustration was constructed of layers of individual illos. For example: P 7 from An Armful of Acorns, the blue sky is the base layer. The tree is a separate illo and another layer. As is the squirrel and the nuts and the leaves. Each page element is individually inked, painted, scanned, cleaned up in Photoshop and than finally combined into one layered Photoshop file. This way the app developer can make the leaves flutter or the squirrel twirl or acorns spin. These 2 are my first ebook projects. They were a fun creative challenge and it helped that Farfaria was very easy to work with.
Below are my favorite illustration from each book. Both now available on the App Store.
P-7 from An Armful of Acorns © Farfaria Filbert is nuts about acorns which lands him in all sorts of predicaments. To view the cover art or to find out more - click HERE
