Safari Sketch
Hey fellow picture book addicts, I'm back to clear the cobwebs off this blog - my gosh there are lots of them. I'm currently working on a promo postcard for the spring..here's my sketch:
Of course, when I'm happy with the sketch I get super anxious about doing the painting part of it. Choosing the wrong colors and line quality could completely ruin the whole thing- fingers crossed that it all works out!

Oh my goodness, Paige! This is PERFECT just the way it is! But I still can't wait to see it in color. Just scan it just as it is and then print it onto the watercolor paper and play! Then there's no pressure of messing up the sketch! I really love this sketch!!!! Have fun!
This is so lovely!
I've a soft spot for elephants...and safaris! Looking forward to seeing more!

This is awesome! Your work always impresses me.
Wonderful!! I love the composition, the little bird, the shadow shape on the little boy, all of it!! I'm always nervous before and during painting. Anxiety stinks! This will turn out great though. I'm sure of it:)
Beautiful sketch Paige. And I agree with Phyllis, try scanning and printing out onto watercolour paper to keep the joy of the sketch. The pencil shading on the elephant adds well to his skin texture.
It's adorable!Love it!
this one is so.....great!!! love this one!!
good sketch, are you going this to work it out?
OOOOOOOOOOOO, I love this, it is perfectly wonderful
Super nice drawing, Paige!
Thanks so much everyone, I hope the color version retained some of feeling of the sketch!
I love this so much Paige!! It will make a striking postcard. I already want to know where they are going :o)
