Here are the final designs from the story-book style "initial letters" I have recently completed, as part of my first formal commission. Even though most rough designs I did had full colour, in the end, the decision was made for the finals to be in monochrome.
I have put together pages of some of my rough workings before each of the final illustrations so you can see how I progress. The letters will illustrate the capital letters of three short fairytale stories within a design that is to decorate a set of mugs.
