I have to admit I am rather proud of the body of work I have produced for this final major study. I feel I've pushed my boundaries and my confidence has only grown with each new image.
The time it takes to produce these images has been rather strange. The one that took the longest was Little Jack Horner, and yet it is arguably the most simple. However, the last two images I did, 'Tom, the Piper's Son' and 'Little Miss Muffet', I was able to do both in a relatively short time. The award for the most troublesome has to go to Georgie Porgie. For some reason that one was proving difficult; nothing ever seemed right. In my eyes, it is my weakest image.
If I were to start this project again, I feel that now I have that little more experience with painting I can do more than five due to my speed and quality improving. It was those first three where I was still finding my feet with acrylic paint that slowed me down. Five was my initial target and I am please to say I have met that.
I also said in my initial pitch these illustrations were being done to improve my portfolio and to be used for perosnal promotion. Again, I feel this has been met as they are at the peak of what I can achieve at this time in my career; I also feel they establish myself as an illustrator.
I hope you enjoyed looking at them,
Stephen
