This piece was made in my DP Art class during a year of virtual school. I was missing in-person activities like theater club and finding comfort in fond memories from before quarantine, so I decided to draw a fantastical version of a moment during a fall 2020 production of Alice in Wonderland.

I drew inspiration from the detail and color of Laura Callaghan’s maximalist illustrations. Because of the scale of this piece and my choice to use burnished colored pencil to color the entire drawing, creating this piece took several weeks of planning, sketching, inking, and coloring to complete.
