I started out by flicking through my pile of kimono and Japanese design books....
Then started out with this sketch that I scanned.... The plan was to make a series of them, all nesting dolls with the last one opening, hence the line in the middle....
With the aid of photoshop, she soon looked like this... as a rough sketch, I was pretty happy so far.....
But then once I put her into the banner dimensions... she looked rather lost..... so that was all scrapped (well not totally, I will go back and work on her at a later time)...
And for now, my banner looks like this... what do you think?
