Illustrations

My finished watercolours and illustrations : mostly fan art of characters I love, plus a few original creations. Most are painted in watercolour on cotton paper, the others worked up with coloured pencils and alcohol markers, sometimes straight onto the pages of a sketchbook. Click an image to enlarge it and look closely at the details : the gradients, the grain of the paper and the construction lines still showing.
