Three brothers

My Focus
This assignment gave me the chance to explore visual storytelling through traditional sketching techniques - focusing on line work, perspective, and symbolic elements to bring the myth to life. I wanted to capture both the sorrow and strength in their story, using shading and composition to evoke emotion and atmosphere.
Why I Loved This Project
I’ve always been drawn to folklore and fantasy, so this piece felt really personal to me. It was one of the first times I got to express a full story visually, and it helped spark my interest in using illustration as a narrative tool.
