(click on image to enlarge)I completed another illustration for the Meet the Author Bible lesson series this evening. I might tweak some colours later on before it's printed this summer. The colours (especially the violets and oranges) will become more muted than they appear here, when converted to CMYK for printing.
Flashcard size is 24x34cm. Lesson was illustrated in Adobe Photoshop and Corel PainterX.

nice job. Looks great
Doesn't he have an inkwell to dip his ink into? I thought Isaiah was left-handed! What's wrong with you Tim!?!?! ;^)
OK, wise guy! ;-) See if I ever tell you again what I forgot to put in my pictures! ;-)
I thought I'd be sneaky and place the pen in my right hand for the reference photo even though I'm left handed (I was the model).
Good point on the inkwell (which I left out). I did some research and there are 1-2 passages in Isaiah and from historical records that show that writing was done on several types of surfaces: one way was to use pages that were joined together to make a scroll and some writing was even done by scratching into a thin wax surface on wood and stacked in a "book" form. ... that's one heavy book!
Since this is a visual for viewing from a distance by a group of children for a very short period (1–2 min.) I kept it very simple. Also, I am under some time limits for each illustration so I need to keep it simple.
