Page 1 drawing mostly complete


Drawing out the first page I have lots of questions for myself. How dark do I want my pencil lines? How much detail and shading am I going to do in the pencil stages, and how much in the watercolor? Should I still add the vulture in the sky, or is the tree a good enough focal point? I think I made up my mind on the first two, but I'm too tired to decide on whether or not to add a bird. The sky seems busy to me because of the tree branches, and I'm going to be adding text to the sky on the left, so I can't put the bird there. I think I'll pass on adding a bird to the shot. Originally I thought it would add life, but I think the tree already achieved that.

Hopefuly I'll start painting it tomorrow.
