I wanted to start with something relatively simply to begin my visual journal. As I was reading some of the Grimms fairy tales, I came across some quotes that I thought would be nice to illustrate. Some of them were quite descriptive and others just simply created an image in my head:
- "Witches have red eyes"- Hansel and Gretel
- "Beautiful faces and fair skin, but with heart that were foul and black"- Cinderella
- "Her heart turned cold like stone. Envy pride grew as fast as weeds in her heart"- Snow White
- "First an owl, then a raven, and finally a dove"- Snow White
- "There was little window that looked out onto a splendid garden, full of beautiful flowers" - Rapunzel
- "Snip, snap went the scissors, and the beautiful tresses fell to the ground"- Rapunzel
- "Under the three big oak trees"- Little Red Riding Hood
- "A goose with feathers of pure gold"- The Golden Goose
- "She ended up in front of a little door with a rusty old key in its lock"- Briar Rose
- "Seven coal-black ravens flying off into the distance"- The Seven Ravens
- "I'll give you the ring on my finger"- Rumpelstiltskin
- "All the trees in the woods were growing tall, with their green branches intertwining"- The Juniper Tree
I think I want to create these in paper cut, as previously mentioned. I've also been thinking about incorporating hand-lettering into it somehow as these has become a big part of practice recently.
