Down The Rabbit HoleI've always had a facination with fantastic children's stories, especially when they tend to be based on nonsense or ideas from dreams. This stuff was like rocket fuel for my imagination when I was a kid and, I think, eventually influenced my illustration style.
I was doodling this rabbit pic recently and it kind of turned out to be Alice and the White Rabbit from Alice In Wonderland, which led me to add a background and so on. The only problem is that the rabbit was too happy and manga looking.
My second attempt at the rabbit seemed more appropriate. Usually the White Rabbit is portrayed as being elegant and fussy looking, but I made him a little more derranged and frantic with a myxomatosed eye.
The piece is made up of separate pen drawings which are scanned, manipulated and coloured in Photoshop, as is most of my artwork only I gave extra attention to detail in this one.
