Thumbnail ideas for my chosen scenes. I have decided to focus on the theme of love and compassion and how it is shown against a background of war. Although the narrative is a sad one, there are moments of contentment and real affection between certain characters. I want to evoke this somehow without being completely literal. At the moment these don't have interesting enough angles, and I need to draw from reference!
I have also made my own version of The Standover Man. The character Max Vandenburg makes this book for Liesel's birthday using ripped out and painted pages from Hitler's book Mein Kampf. I wanted to make another book after the book making workshop last week. I painted the paper with white watered down acrylic paint which made the pages dry nice and crinkly, and then I painted the illustrations inside with black acrylic.
