Of secrets beneath the waves
by thisnorthernboy
More imaginary places. I’ve blogged before about how I love to draw make-believe places, and in the last few days I’ve been doing more…
The Copse
The Island
The City
I’d like to visit all of these places. I’d like to know their inhabitants, their histories, their futures… I want to know why that rock floats with its little stand of trees. I want to know about those tentacles beneath the island – I want to know if the people who live there know about them. I want to know about that city, who rules it, who that great wall keeps out…
Maybe I’ll write the stories of these imagined places one day.

This a very intricate. Did you do this by pen?

Awesome…
Do you have any illustrations that you have done for writers
Not bad and a lot of work. You have talent.

So many details, the windows and all. Love it.

I’ve got one word for you….. Simply Beautiful
Most of my drawings are drawn in pigment liner pens – either Copic, Staedtler or Microns.
I haven’t – yet. I’m actually a graph designer by trade, so my drawings, at the moment, are just a hobby. I would like to illustrate books though.
This Is awesome. Its astonishing to see w
What’s up in people’s mind…
I would like to visit “The City” as well. Amazing! You should create an adult colouring book if you haven’t already.
Interesting and unic imagination..
I saw the sketches. I’m fully convinced that it takes only imagination and loads of it to be an artist… kudos…
Wow. I really love these.

Great drawings. I’ll be following your blog and will be looking forward to seeing more of your drawings. I might post some of my drawings and paintings. I didn’t think about it until now. I’ll check out your instagram too. Great write! I hope you do write stories to them.
Love your illustrations!

I am currently writing a screenplay and this reminds me a lot of a world I have imagined. When I get further in my process, maybe we can collaborate.

I can loose myself in drawings like this……they take me to places…..write stories in my head and shape my dreams. << That are a lot of words to tell you I love them 😀
You said “maybe I’ll write stories of these imagined places one day”. Can that day be today?

My Small World……I still can’t tell if I’m rising or falling!
This reminds me of Ursula K. Le Guin’s Earthsea stories. Lovely.
