Inky Arabian Nights : Process Video

Inky Arabian Nights : Process Video

A while back I put together a video sharing some of my watercolor techniques. There was a lot of positive feedback on that video and I knew wanted to create another process video. My current project provides a perfect opportunity to do just that!

I am super excited to be working on a series of images for a collectors’ edition of a tale from the Arabian Nights called the Fisherman and the Demon. This is a dream project for me. The publishers, Foolscap Press, are master artisans and the book will be printed with letterpress and hand tinted in a limited edition. As the production gets closer I will tell you more about all that, and I promise… there is a lot of fantastic stuff to tell!

I thought that this would be a great opportunity to share some of this work with you. I put together this time-lapse video of the inking of the third of five spreads that will all link together. The video is shot in HD so you can see each pen stroke!

More details to follow, but for now…I want to welcome you into my studio and I hope that you enjoy the show!

A quick note about the music, the song is called “Colazione Su Saturno” (Breakfast on Saturn) by Menion. You can find out more about him on his website: http://www.menion.org
