Illustrator Notes
Do you like to draw or paint?
Soon I will post photos/videos of the process I used to illustrate Gabby the Chicken. These 5 Illustrator Tips will feature some techniques for artists of all ages. I welcome your own creative ideas and hope you share your chicken masterpiece in Gabby’s Gallina Gallery. Upload to info@gabbythechicken.com.

Below is the first stage, called underpainting, showing the wash effect on the sky. And the bottom image is the completed scene.
