Ilon Wikland study

“At The Café” (after Ilon Wikland), color pencil on Fabriano paper ✏️ First study from an art book I received yesterday 📖 Ilon’s ability to draw soulful figures and landscapes has impressed and influenced me since I first read “The Brothers Lionheart” as a child. It was with a sense of delightful terror I turned a page to look at another drawing of Tengil’s soldiers and the dragon Katla. Of course it didn’t take long until I drew my first warrior wearing a similar helmet as one of the soldiers in the book ⚔️
