Picture book prep

From sketch to final artwork (and lots in between)!

Although quite a sad part of the story, I loved drawing this polar bear in search of land. Another gorgeous creature to draw. The scene was kept quite empty in order to create a sense of isolation, but hope is near in the form of a little narwhal.
