Duet - Illustration Friday



The idea of a "duet" conjured up several images for me; music, friendship and symbiotic relationships. (I can thank Star Wars for introducing me to "symbiotic," think Jar Jar Binks.) ;) We all know we need each other to be in harmony but we also need lots of "duets" to survive. The sun and the moon are perfect examples and I wanted to showcase these along with my young musicians to represent "Duet" on these book covers. 

(I also just wanted to play around with designing a book cover. It turned out to be great fun.)

  8. Thank you for stopping by my blog :) Super illustration. The fuzziness round the sun and moon gives them a nice feeling of glowing.

  9. Thanks for the comments everyone. This was fun and I could not resist adding the sun/moon duet theme. Of course, the friend they work together to help is the earth, since we are in the month of Earth Day.

  10. Creative idea! I really like the little details you put in, like the fringe on the curtains, the girls' faces and the jewelry and hair accessories.
