The legend of the German Shepherd and the Fair Girls



[click to enlarge ]
This is one [of a series of large poster illustrations] I did for a storytelling campaign of
Flemish folklore. In this particular image the mythical magic shepherd meets a group of girls
trotting off to the local fair ['kermis']. Each girl reacts differently meeting this unexpected
by-passer. Some react with shock, one with ignorance, another with disdain and one with respect..
[pencil, collage, mixed media]

Notes to myself: a milestone in one's goal getting [to come]

I love the colors on this one. I really like the combination of the blue sky with the contrast of the orange hair. The girls really pop off the page. What an interesting tale.
