This self initiated brief aims to replicate a project such as the folio society's work in re releasing limited edition runs of books, with bespoke illustrations. Having recently re read my childhood favorite: 'Watership down' I was motivated to work on a brief involving it. I first looked to cover artwork made previously. I like the aesthetic of the far left of all, however I feel the colours are to bright and happy. None represent the fear and tension I remember feeling reading the book and watching the film as a child. This is how I would like to Illustrate Watership Down.
My initial process was just to draw rabbits and poignant scenes I remember from the book and I have a good breadth of ideas from witch to start the development process. I've got various different compositional plans for the drawing of burrows that I plan to develop first.
