Description This is one of the pieces I did for a fun little childrens book about a Robot (Robo-san) who goes on a search for his dog (Wan-san).
Using the appropriate children's storybook logic, he searches in the clouds.
Ultimately, this was just an excuse for me to experiment in traditional media, goauaaoaouache(I think I spelled that right) and acrylics as well as paint what I love painting...robots...clouds...trees, etc.

I'll give you guys a couple more of these, my favorites and if you're really interested maybe I'll put the pdf up here so you can see the whole book, with my 2nd grade--oh. I forgot to mention I did this for my Japanese language class. Final project was to write a book. So yes. I wrote it in 2nd grade(and I'm flattering myself) level Japanese.


gouache and acrylic
8.5"x14" bristol paper. (bad idea, but it worked)
eth.

Couldn't agree more, I long for the next time I get to climb aboard a plane and see them up close. Thanks for taking the time to comment, your words are much appreciated.

Looks amazing, man.
Find it interesting how some of the clouds kind of have that open mouth face.

Yeah, I wanted to give the environment as much personality and character as the main character itself.
