I’ve carried this tin in my bag for many years. I kept my chapstick, nail clippers and band-aids in it. I think I was working for the muggles when I got it. Or, maybe even Voldemort. I’ve had it for many years, anyway.
I’m trying to not repeat using the same container. For example, I won’t use a Creme de Menthe again. For now, anyway. This week’s Illustration Friday prompt is “Midsummer Night” and that made me think about Venus bathing, only to find her clothes missing. Which made me think about this curiously hawt tin.
I’ve been wanting to use color and please notice that Venus is all one cut-out – her left foot in actually under the water.
Here’s a WIP shot, to show the wonderfully well-worn inside of the tin.
Happy Midsummer Night! Don’t let rascally raccoons steal your clothes.
haha brilliant display!
Fascinating! I like the way the woods looks so deep and foreboding. The raccoon is my special favorite.
I do like this work!!!
You used COLOR! And it has a raccoon it in, so that’s good.
Cooool :)
Cool work! I like the 3D technique of the illustration in combination with the tin very much. And thank you for sharing your thoughts and little story of the work.
Wow! I love your form of storytelling! I’m glad I’ve found your amazing blog!
