Rough Draft

















This is pretty much what I want this to look like, but not quite.  I had the clouds colored teal in PS, but I really want this to be painted fully traditionally.  While I was filling in the color around the leafs I started thinking of an illustration I saw at Illustration House.  




















(Sorry, I'm not sure who the illustrator was.)  This illustration was amazingly detailed.  When filling in the clouds behind the trees, I was zoomed way, way in, but not being particularly careful.  Nothing like what we see here.  But I can zoom in and he couldn't.  What if he could?  What if any of them could?  Or would they even bother touching the computer?  Would I if in a different time?
