Castle in the Sky

A personal illustration I made inspired by a mix of Howl’s Moving Castle and The Sound of Music.

In this illustration I experimented with large and rough brush strokes, and for the color palette I wanted it to be dominated by complimentary colors - here red and green.

For the motif I wanted to create a kind of world within a world, with the woman looking longingly up at the sky seeing a mountain peek, or a hidden kingdom.
