ROBIN

For my illustration practice, I took on the character Robin and started by prepping an illustration board with gesso. Once that was sorted, I figured out the composition and dove right into bringing Robin to life. But let me tell you, this piece gave me a run for my money! It was a bit more challenging than I anticipated.

So, I decided to take a different approach. I scanned the final artwork and worked some digital magic to brighten up the colors. It really made a difference and added some extra pop to the illustration.

By blending traditional techniques with digital tweaks, I pushed myself to grow as an artist and give Robin a fresh and captivating look. It was an exciting journey of experimentation and skill-building, and I'm thrilled with the end result.

AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE:

Robin, “15 x 20”, gouache, $400
