I interpreted the scene in a variety of techniques: red chalk & charcoal, pencil & wash, markers, and oil.
What would the scene look like from high up on a balcony, or from a child's perspective, looking up?
There are probably 100 more like these, all drawn purely from the imagination.
Once I decided on the composition, I located maquettes, models,
costumes, and reference photos to help me visualize the complete scene.
The painting appears in Dinotopia: A Land Apart from Time.
What made you decide not to do the balcony scene?
