I realized, I never wrote about my Paintings of Peter Rabbit. Here are my layout designs of the images paired with text. They were lay ed out in my portfolio like this. I decided on a simple layout style with text on one side and the image on the other.Then I did spot illustrations for the text pages. (I'm not really sure why, but I originally wanted them to be black and white.) I placed them either under or above the text. Finally I painted the borders for the text pages.
It would be nice to see the type hand drawn in ink and not type set, so that the organic feel of the paintings flowed with the intention of the hand drawn lettering. Very beautiful none the less!
