Description Hi there,

This is another concept for my book project The CrowsΒ΄ Parliament. As you can see is an homage to Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows and the wonderful art of Arthur Rackham. In my book some of the characters of Graham's book (and from other victorian child book classics) appear in a very different and pop-surrealistic way. I hope you like it.

Done in Photoshop CS3 with a Wacom Cintiq 12WX.I'll post the process and some details in my blog: [link]
Comments and critics are most welcome, thanks

I can see Rackham's hand in this. I have a copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales illustrated by him. Have always loved his work. Delightful!

this is beautiful, reminds me of the old style paintings a little bit like the pictures in Rip Van Winkle and Alice in Wonderland (can't remember what the artists name was) it reminds you of childish fantasies and adventures

Gorgeous detailing. I love how much information you fit in so precisely, and with so little color variation. It's like having an old storybook come to like.
