Once Upon A Time Series

All drawings in this series are 18 x 24 inches (460 x 610mm) in size on bristol paper. Pencil is used to create the initial draft and retraced with ink pen. The creation is then filled in with colored pencil. To me, the drafting stage is the most creative while the inking process makes the idea lasting. The coloring step takes the longest time as it involves the most thought on selecting color combinations, recognizing that the decision is irreversible once it is on paper.
