Okay, so this is phase 2 of the process work for illustration, the thumbnail has been decided upon, the necessary variations have been made.

Now, we get into the actual drawing itself

First, all of the elements of the piece are photo-collaged into place
Then a contour study is made, just to get a rough idea for placement and where the piece is headed

The finished line drawing isn't a finished work at all but a semi-resolved piece that will serve as ground zero for the finished product. Thus, a contour drawing is made on tracing paper on top of that, to alter elements, shift positioning of things like the bubbles, grass and butterflies, and then it is taken to the actually FINISHED line drawing
