Research and sketches illustrating 'The love Shoes', one of the tales of the Boca street, written by Pierre Gripari

Last week, I started a new illustration work for the school. I chose a tale written by Pierre Gripari, a very talented storyteller! All his stories are filled with humor and playfulness, with a lot of sensitivity and refinement.

Two love shoes that are sad not to see the day as walking one after a other. One step after another... Poor shoes!

My painting are done in watercolors, they specify some ideas... The rest will come quietly, I hope! Not easy to illustrate love, sadness other separation... But so exciting! :)
