Nothing was going to stop him, and he is willing to go the extra mile to get there. Such as circling such a distance tell me of Earles determination and drive. Also the “history” I like to know how how things shape the artist and how that impacts their word. Seeing how people talk about artist help me improve my own creative vocabulary, helps me start putting the thoughts in my head into words. Nothing is more inspiring and fact can see how they build their illustrations.

(or personal growth)īelow is a video of Eyvind Earle at work, I love finding video of artist in work. So, I will save Blair for the future research. He also creates the most interesting colour palette that when it comes together it really sets the tone for for mood.įor the same reason as above it would also be very easy to include Mary Blair as well as they almost go hand in hand in my mind, however she is one of my heroines, however Earle has more of the right and darker vibe which is what I am aiming for, Her concept art is a little more cheerful, bolder and fun, then I’m feeling for this as I feel this is more mystery, secrets, vastness and shadows like that of Earles style. I love the textures, the little details within the trees created by mark making and textures. So it is understandable I have included his work in my moodboard for this task. Visualising the building as characters may be an exciting element to my illustration.Įyvind Earle is also one of my early inspirations when comes to backgrounds. Maybe this assignment could be the start of me making positive changes in backgrounds! My work is very much character driven and I tend to over look background. I’ve said this before in my learning logs that I want to give more attention to backgrounds in my illustrations. In fact during his class I learnt to mix “Davy Grey” to colours to give the perfect just muted colour without losing the tonal value. He creates in watercolour, with lines and very moody muted darker tones. Just maybe due to this link I was able to quickly be inspired right away.īut that is not Alfredo only inspiration, he list building and their imperfect characters that inspire me. His very first inspiration who he talked about in the Demestika course Illustration Stories: from idea to paper… Is none other than Italo Calvino, He loves like I his imagination and can see himself in the cities. I quickly was reminded by why Alfredo had jumped right into my mind… I do relate to this as I started at collage level to go down fashion design route, before realising wasn’t for me as I feel I liked the clothes my “characters” wore over designing clothes to be made. I had been doing his course and came right to my mind the moment I was reading and being inspired by the book.Īlfredo started as an architect before realising it wasn’t for him, but the elements of buildings still very much visual within his illustrations. So was looking at building on cliff side/slopes and treehouses.Īlfredo Caceres | Ilustraciones, Ilustraciones infantiles Having never been to Venice, I had to find images to get the feel (even found some online tours of the streets of Venice) I was mainly looking at how building clutter together. Very much at first centred around buildings, Venice and spider webs. I was inspired so grabbed some paper as I was reading, used interest searches (and my Pinterest board) to pull together some early visuals.

– Venice – Seeing all the cities are build around Venice, could add little building elements.

– Tree houses (figured be a logical way to work houses into a spider web) I had a few visual ideas popping in my head that made a good starting points I tried to think what inspire the vision of the web city, maybe down the canal seeing washing lines, bridges that connect both sides! (Could revisit one day as a personal self directed project) *How I wanted to illustrate all of the cities. It is almost like the “grown up” version of the tale. *At times I am think of the children story “the emperor new clothes” the way Polo tries to “fool” him. (guess could think about different viewpoints.) This made me think about my own city and all the areas that could well be twisted to create different worlds. * How a single city could inspire so much and many stories. *Chess & games is an element could include (maybe black and white chess board patterns) Key things that was bought to my attention that may help me centre my research and core thoughts are It also gives insight into the city and fact all the “cities are based on the same place!”. (pg 67) I am glad that I did as this may be a case you judge the book too quickly, a single page really while gives an idea does not reflect the book on the whole. Italo Calvino’s 1972 – novel Invisible Cities. First thing I did for this assignment was to buy and read the book.
