Queen Sketches:
Columns
Queen Sketches:
Lady
Looking out the window
Queen Sketches:
Crown
Snake gives her a more ‘snake queen’ look
Other than the snake part it is not very detailed and not very crown looking
Development
Columns ordered and sized to create corridor look
Development
Initially, I attempted to depict a snake wrapped around a crown. However, I did not like the look of the crown or how the snake sat. Which led me to the second back cover option which looked much more appealing.

Africa
Africa Ideas Layers on the horizon
Front facing snake
Grass and animal sillouette
Africa Sketches:
Snake
Best shape Facing forward
Africa Sketches:
Lion
Too cute
Casual motion Can see more shape of body for silhouette
Africa Sketches:
Ape
Best shape for distant silhouette
Too cute
Wont be able to see shape in a silhouette
Development
Initially I attempted to have the ape and lion closer and more detailed. However the composition didnt feel appealing and seemed too busy. Instead I returned to the silhouette idea and felt that was more effective. I also extended the setting to the back cover to make it a succinct piece.
Development
Cobras have ‘neck hoods’ that i planned to depict. However after trying that I found that it didnt look quite right. Therefore I decided to make it another snake with no neck hood
Development I outlined two heads for the snake. It needed to be details and realistic and found that both of these styles suited what I wanted. Eventually I decided that the left option looked more visually appealing.
