"Traditional Media Fraggle Rock Illustrations by Jessica Draws" By Jessica Donnan
I have drawn these illustrations for the Fraggle Rock 30th Anniversary with the idea of craftsmanship, art and imagination in mind. Everything about Jim Henson's creations tell of the creativity and craft skills that went into creating all sorts of wonderful characters and I have decided to use traditional media to re-create them in a homage to traditional methods of creating an imaginary world. The rough lines and textures are representative of the raw ideas that came from Jim Henson.
I created them using water colours, pencil and ink pens on to acrylic paper which gives the texture. Every stroke came from my love of Jim Henson's work and the creativity and imagination that came from watching Fraggle Rock and made me want to be an artist.
