Fiction Project again (Lieland)

Finally, I have done this illustrations, but don't have enough confidence^^; After I had finished illustration of Heart of Darkness, I have got an uncomfortable feeling with this task. Might be I have thought the mark making and the appearance of character are unnatural for me. Thus one of them is completely different style^0^; Hope I begin to notice my style of drawing.

Illustration for Heart of Darkness (闇の奥のためのイラストレーション)

Heart of Darkness is Joseph Conrad's novel. it was one of my college's task. the story is dark story based on trade with Africa in 19c. I enjoyed the project. I could understand how to use watercolour effectively, also understood colour theory.

イギリスの作家ジョセフ・コンラッドが書いた’闇の奥’、学校の課題でこの小説のイラストを描きました。１９世紀のイギリスとアフリカの貿易を背景に書かれたこのお話はwilderness という日本語には訳しにくい単語’荒野’がテーマとなっています。イギリス人の主人公がアフリカへ貿易に行き、恐ろしい荒野を目の当たりにして行く話です。Youtubeで映画を見て調べたり楽しかったです。全体として暗く、シリアスなお話なので、雰囲気作りや色の使い方が少し難しかったですが、とても勉強になりました＾＾♪

Reportage Project

One of a Method project, I learnt Reportage. we went to Royal Opera House's set making studio. Then drew some sketch and produced pencil drawings. This exercise were very helpful for me.
