The illustration depicts a landscape in portrait format. It is set on the coast of Brittany, France, although the sea is out of the picture but the colorful heath on the foreground is a big hint. Pink and reddish heather, gorse and lichen-covered granitic blocks take the lower third of the picture. The sky is blue with big clouds and seagulls. At the edge of the heath, a woman and a man dressed in traditional Breton clothing (from Bro Bigouden) run ; the woman is ahead, laughing, while the man is chasing her and looking more uncertain as their path is probably unsteady. The vibe is warm and invites on a journey to coastal Brittany.
A linocut print depicting a humpback whale breaching. There are splashes of water surrounding her. Part of the background was kept dark to intensify the contrast between the splashing water and the whale's darker body. Blue paint was used for printing.
A linocut print : an armor gauntlet is holding a bouquet of flowers. The shape of the bouquet contrasts with the details of the flowers, which are stylized.
The template of a sticker sheet consisting of 6 dragons, which are all of a different color (pink greyish-brown, blue, red, green with pink strips, yellow). There charadesigns are all different, as well as their transpiring personalities (regal, wary, playful, sleepy, derpy and happy/curious).
Hi #PortfolioDay ! ✨

This year I've been experimenting with linocut printing and it's so satisfying !
