Working Out the Theme














This week I've concentrated on having something to say; the theme for Illustration Friday is "Open." One idea was to show a child, open to learning and paying attention. R. is a teacher, and often tells me the kids he teaches are tuning out and have stopped being open to learning. So I wanted to show a child who is still open to that. First, I found a face and expression that was right, and worked out the skin tones. Then what I wanted him doing with his hands, and then what the pose would be. I haven't put it all together yet, but these are the parts.
