Artist's Comments

An assignment for my Illustration class, this is a scene from Kenneth Oppel's "Firewing" I was going to explain the scene, but decided against it. Best to read the book for yourselves. It's actually a trilogy, " Silverwing","Sunwing", and "Firewing".
My fav movie when I was a kid was the Secret of Nimh, and the books reminded me of it a whole lot. They're young adult books, but they're good.
Anyways. Done in gouache, in three sittings of three hours each.
I'm rather pleased, as my teacher wants to submit this to one of the directors of the school in the hopes that he'll put it on the school walls.
so yay.

Hey !

I am also a fan of SilverWing trilogy ! I'm reading the second part of Sunwing now and I didn't ever know there was a third book from Kenneth.

Anyway. Pretty good pic of the vantrum spectrum Cama Zotz !
