Bringing together a children's book is difficult and I easily connect with animals and casting humor and a personally onto an animal but figures have always been a challenged to me in my work, and especially working on children's books I have to be able to draw children. As I started working with different materials felt it wasn't working but speaking to my tutor's I decided to look at my first inspiration for using collage as a form of making my illustrations which was Henri Matisse Drawing with scissors.
So I started to forget about what a figure SHOULD look like and think more about abstracting the figure more and making it more creative and fun. The overall outcome I felt was very successful and will continue to work in this method until I find a technique that I am happy with.
