Roughs for Howls moving Castle

For digital Illustration's next project, I will be doing a book cover for Howls Moving Castle. Yes it was a book before the movie:) Anyway, Fantastic as the movie was, i am attempting to do my interpretation of it.  And even though this is my interpretation... it still looks alot like the movie. BLAH. o well, i'm gonna draw it anyway...

Finished Rabbit Holes cover.

LIKE A BOSS.

okay lame excuse again but the colors have randomly decided to be a butt and go all 10 times brighter than they appear on my Photoshop screen. I think it has something to do with working in CMYK.  i dont know how to fix it. if anyone does. TELL ME.
Anyway here it is, my final cover. i know there are some things wrong with it, but hey this was my first time coloring in Photoshop, So don't be hate'n!! And for those of you who know how much i like my textures, i only used one in this piece!! mmmmmmhm. Also, This is for my digital Illustration class, but will also make an appearance in my illustration portfolio.

Inks for comic

In-progress stuff...

Teatime Greeting Cards

This illustration series goes on the back of cards i made for my decorative illustration class.  Nothing really new about these except i played with the color of the linework a little.  The little kettle goes on the back and says teatime illustrations by Jori van der Linde.

Smooth Comic Cover Roughs

OOOO, so for my Digital Illustration class, we have to make a comic book cover, which can be real or made-up.  I chose to fabricate one cause then i can draw anything i want HA! When i think of it now though, this may have been a bad idea, cause i made up a story purely to draw rabbits. Anyway, I'm giving it the title, "Rabbit holes." Half the credit for this story goes to my bestie Leah.

And this is my Illustrative Goal and Smooth Roughs:

Illustrated Goal

- GIRL, aided by her companion (fox-wolf-like creature), must discover the mysteries of the rabbit holes in order to find and save her family from the “unknown hooded thing.”

Very vague i know...

Self Portrait.. Again.

This is my in-progress work on a self-portrait.. CRAZY TEACHERS, my assignment is to draw a hyper-realistic self portrait.. then ERASE it.. killl me quickly..

Owls

OWLS!! so cute, especially the northern saw-whet owl, i wish i had one as a pet.  Anyway this illustration i hope to frame and sell in the Emily Carr student art sale this year:)  I hand drew them, and colored using textures in photoshop.

the back is supposed to be more green... i'll change that later haha...
