Still have to learn a lot about environments and composition. But in the end after trying a lot of compositions and all sorts of stuff in the back and foreground, I end up liking it the most when the background is just... plain white! Just my characters on a white background. For me that is part of the magic of drawing: out of nothing there appears a character and after I color it it comes alive and a story is unfolding and my imagination takes me away. Oh how I love a single colored drawing in te middle of a blank page ❤️. So maybe I should stop trying to fill the complete page in order to make an environment. What do you think? #illustration #drawing #childrensbookillustration #environmentaldrawing #kidsbookart #sketchbook #matsicb #illustrationartist #kidlitart #digitaldrawing

I have had a sketch of these two in my sketchbook for a very long time. It was for @makeartthatsells #matsicb A beautiful story by @zoe_tucker_design about a girl who really really wants a pet. Somehow I had never used it, but I am so fond of this elephant 🥰 I had to get him alive and out of my sketchbook! So here he is! 😁 #makeartthatsells #illustration #kidsbookillustration #characterdesign #digitalillustration #childrensbookillustration #kidlitart #elephant #music

Hehe I don’t know where this guy came from (maybe a neighbor?🧐) but he is fun! Such a nice and sweet character. I wonder what other characters are going to show their faces! Having fun with my sketchbook ❤️Trying to take some time every day to play and experiment without the pressure to make something good. Just having fun! #illustration #sketchbookdrawing #drawingfun #drawing #crocodile #characterdesign #childrensbookillustration #watercolorillustration #coloredpencil

Ok I know he does not look like a nice guy, but looks can be deceiving. He helped me out testing materials. So he is kind off an Allstar 😆and I am grateful he wanted to be a guinea pig or croco pig. I used #pencil #watercolor #panpastels #coloredpencils and #gellyrollpens Am I forgetting something? 🧐 Maybe tomorrow by daylight I will add more 😂 #sketchbookdrawing #illustration #childrensbookillustration #crocodile #drawing #practisemakesprogress #doodle

This unicorn has been waiting for a long time in my sketchbook for me to color it. He was a little bit caught by surprise that he finally could get out of my sketchbook into the big wide world. I heard him whisper: "Gosh". So be gentle with him! 😄#unicorn #illustration #kidlitillustration #pencil #digitalillustration #kidlitpostcard #childrensbookillustration #illustrationfun #illustratie #tekening #drawing #eenhoorn
