Illustration Friday - Diary

This week's topic at Illustration Friday is "Diary"

This illustration is a first for many aspects. First time I illustrated literally by hand, using pencil for Illustration Friday. First time I used mixed media for an illustration: Sketching, photography and digital manipulation. Another first (and the most important) is this is my first time inking and colouring in in photoshop and I absolutely loved it! It is easier than I though. I found some good tutorials on youtube and just followed the pattern. The result is more than satisfactory! I wanted to learn this tecnique for a long time and thanks to Kasia I gave it a go and after 5-6 days of trying, I have my first digital colouring example. 

I hope you like it too. Please don't hesitate to leave a comment. There is my illustration for this week's topic: Diary



Thanks for watching!

Notes:

1. I borrowed the background pattern from the web. Googled it and it was on the first page. I hope I don't get myself in any trouble. =) Thanks guys! There is the website:

2. As I said I watched some tutorials on youtube. If you're interested, there are some links for you as well:
