The theme for the Illustration Friday for May 22 is "Cracked". The first image that came to mind was that of a cracked sidewalk causing a little kid to go sailing! I decided that it would be a good illustration to show movement and action. But I also wanted to add a story in the piece, otherwise it's just a picture of a girl tripping over the sidewalk. Once again, I drew the first thing that came to mind which was that this little kid is a wanna-be Wizard. I imagined that she's running towards a friends who needs a spell but quick! In so doing, she trips over the sidewalk, sending her side-kick companion (the frog), sailing through the air along with her glasses and book of spells. I'll post the watercolor final when it's done.
Thanks for a great challenge, Illustration Friday!
