Pigling Bland

So school is full throttle. 
We are bombarded with all sorts of projects. This is one of them - an illustration to one of Beatrix Potter's books other than "Peter the Rabbit". I picked the tale of Pigling Bland, a story about a very proper piglet who went to the market to find a job bit got lost along the way  and found refuge on a farm of Mr. Piperson, who was ready to turn Pigling Bland into bacon and other things. At the farm Pigling Bland meets Pig-wig, a Berkshire piglet and they escape together into the wild.

I have decided to concentrate on the background imagery and chose a passage about Pigling Bland being lost in the dark and scary woods.

Here are the preliminary sketches. Let's see where this all will take me!
