vincentdesjardinsdraws: Two different stages of a work in progress for an illustration for the program for the 2013 Winkie Convention, the longest running Wizard of Oz convention in the world. This year the convention is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the publication of L. Frank Baum’s “The Patchwork Girl of Oz.” I chose to illustrate a scene from that book where Toto captures a ‘Hopper,’ a citizen of one of the mountainous regions of OZ. The ‘Hoppers’ have one leg that they hop around on. I created my illustration in the style of John R. Neill who was the illustrator on 13 of the Oz books that Baum wrote, including “The Patchwork Girl of Oz.” He also wrote and illustrated a couple of his own Oz books after Baum’s death. I drew my illustration using Painter 12. I first sketched it out using one of Painter’s digital pencil brushes and then inked it using Painter’s scratchboard pen brush.

theglasscat: More things I do in my free time. As long as I’m doodling children’s lit. characters, I might as well as use it an excuse to draw Oz. Scraps is my favorite but she is ridiculously difficult to draw. I’m happy with this result and her and the Scarecrow are the cutest thing ever, so “Happy Couple” it is titled.
