Jealousy Underwater

The process work for this image is typical for illustration work:

  1. Thumbnails

  2. Refined Sketches

  3. Color Comps

  4. Draft Image

  5. Final Image

​

See below to follow my process.

Thumbnails

Thumbnails are a way to visually explore the ideas from brainstorming. While I think some of the other images would make beautiful illustrations, I was inspired by a Francisco Goya painting which also expressed jealousy, "Saturn Devouring His Son."

Refined Sketches

My refined sketches for Jealousy Underwater were explorations of lighting and atmosphere.

Color Comps

I experimented with color harmonies and complements to decide what colors work best to tell the story.
