The Making of The Mountain's Last Flower: Rough Draft Images

Crafting a novella is a lot of work! It was about three months from the origins of the idea to the final completion (one month's of 8-hour-per-day work, with interruptions in between)! The least I can do is share the "behind the scenes" of the design of the illustrated novella, "The Mountain's Last Flower," which ended up being my predominant summer project. It takes several revisions in artwork (graphic design, illustration, cartoonwork) and writing in order to finally have enough confidence to share my work with the world! Please see the NEXT BLOG (463) in order to review a commentary of the artistic design process and initial feedback!
