Hello everyone! My name is Ethne Dian and I am a London Art College Student studying the Illustrating Diploma Course.
For me, this time of year is about celebrating the Winter Solstice — the triumph of light over dark. (Can you tell that I read a lot of fantasy?)
Creating colourful characters having fun is my way of combating the very grey and wet Vancouver winter. The mice are actually characters stolen from a book I have written and hope to illustrate some day!
I used pencil, ink, watercolours, and Photoshop in making this piece. (My daughter, who is a graphic designer, very kindly pointed out my many Photoshop mistakes!)
More of my art can be seen on my website: ethnedian.com and on instagram @ethnedian
Happy holidays to all!
