A few months ago I finished a series of books (4 pieces) for a wonderful client. Today we will talk about the first book called "The story of Trunks Maloo". This is a story about an elephant and his adventures. Here the reader can observe a huge number of African animals in their habitat (birds, reptiles, artiodactyls, etc.). In order for the reader's eye not to get bored while reading, I used various types of illustrations (full spreads, spot illustrations, etc.). And in order for the picture not to seem boring and flat in some illustrations, I took some elements of the composition outside the drawing. In my opinion, the emotions of the characters are well spelled out (joy, anger, sadness). The color palette in the first book conveys the mood and atmosphere of the African savannah.
