Malo sem pospravljala mape po računalniku in našla cel kup skic in skičic in nekaj lojter in precej poskusov, pa nekaj fotografij ilustracij za končno knjigo med nastajanjem. Zdaj ko je vse za mano se mi zdi prav zanimivo, spomnim pa se da je bilo takrat manj lahkotno in bolj panično (tisto "Aaaa, kako naj se tega lotim?!") / I've been sorting folders on my computer and found some very early sketches, storyboards, experimenting and documentation photos of creating the final illustrations for the book. I seems interesting to see it now but I remember feeling quite stressed for not knowing how to make it out (right:).
Čisto prva kracarija na temo dečka in neke stare hiše. / Very first doodle on the theme 'a boy' and 'an old house'.
Dve izmed lojter - prvi iz skicirke in drugi, ki sem ga naredila za mail na založbo. / Two storyboards - first is from the skecthbook and the second, more elaborate one, was made for the mail I sent to the publishing house. The ending was changed for safety reasons:)
Variacije na temo. / Variations - ink, watercolor, ink and acrylic, gouache.
In končno - luč na koncu tunela. Potem se je pa samo naredilo. / And finally I decided to use watercolors. The procedure was similar to the development of the photos in a dark room on the old way - images just appreared as if immersed into the developer:)
Na začetku so bile vse črnobele, potem so se pa pobarvale - kot stare fotografije:) / I began with black (my own mixture of umbras, van dyke browns and ivory blacks) and white, and added color later where I felt it was needed.
