When I think of magical and mysterious creatures I think of the ocean. Instead of choosing a specific fairytale I wanted to capture Arthur Rackham’s ability to create other worldly creatures by drawing a bustling sea landscape. This is just the initial pencil sketch, but I plan to outline everything with a thin sharpie, add watercolor, then add more detail overtop with pen in order to mimic Rackham’s style. I want it to look realistic like Rackham’s creatures but also fun and imaginative.
