continuous illustration book//

This project is a self-initiated concertina book which will have one continuous narrative illustration. It takes the form of a ludicrous yarn that a boy is spinning, about his day's events, to a group of people waiting at the bus stop. Each character that appears in the tale appears at the end as one of these people. These images are possible elements of the tale that could form parts of the illustration.

two silly little illustrations i've been working on recently: the teacher is based on a bill murray photograph :)
