Illustration

A recent assignment was to illustrate a scene each from three Brothers Grimm stories. The stories were pre-chosen by the professor: The Wonderful Musician, The Elves and the Shoemaker, and Doctor Know-All.  I attempted a few different styles and experimented with methods for choosing and placing color and tone.

The scene from The Wonderful Musician where the woodsman defends the musician from the forest animals-

The scene from The Elves and the Shoemaker where the shoemaker first discovers the shoes made by the elves - 

And finally, the scene from Doctor Know-All where Crabbe, a poor peasant, visited a doctor's house. This is when Crabbe decided to become a doctor himself -
