MORE HOMEWORK!?

Yes! more homework, from a halloween flavored assignment in my intro to illustration class. We were assigned the imaginary task of designing street banners for the city of minneapolis, springboarding from a shakespearian quote ripe with spooky undertones and chills. For our choosing we had two from Macbeth, and one that was just labeled "shakespear".

I picked the one about all stuff going into a "hellbroth" from Macbeth, and thus the thumbnails began a flurry of sorcery and crazy looking witches twisting sinuously around a cauldron and what have you. Some involved the cauldron chasing the ingredients, which were delightfully silly.

That said, I honestly have no idea how the hell this idea happened.

A lot of the thumbnails, like i said, had to do with the witches tossing monsterous creatures into the witchpot. But then i had a few with the nanimals in cages and stuff.. so i guess from there the cages became the interior of a pantry.. in an unassuming grandma kitchen.. with an apparently unassuming grandma.. with a very scary secret... O O

DONT EAT THOSE COOKIES, UNASSUMING GRANDKIDS!!

Tools-
colored pencil, lineart
adobe photoshop 7.0, base colors
open canas 4+ - massive amounts of detail and overpainting

Love doesn't lead to the dark side. Passion can lead to rage and fear, and can be controlled, but passion is not the same as love. Controlling your passions while being in love, that's what they should teach you to beware, but love itself will save you

Awesome work with the colours again. And I find it actually refreshing how it's somewhat less blurred and not monocoloured than your usual art. (Though I don't dislike that)
