Carousel
Media: Pencil, Photoshop
This personal piece was inspired by a photograph (Taken by the immensely talented 3d overlord Tom Hemeryk) of a derelict carousel in an abandoned amusement park in Belgium. The ghostly kids were added afterwards to push the dreamy atmosphere. I struggled with them for a while - making them alternately translucent and opaque for a few days.
Oh - and the watercolor textures were compliments of www.eatpoo.com. I forget who posted them originally - but thanks!
