ProfessionalWhy did you make this work:
I got the this lovely text about a girl who hears growling from her sink and when she looks through the sink hole she sees the sink monster.
she starts chasing the monster down through her building and through the city until they meet in a dramatic showdown.
Because most of the book's plot his the chase in the building and we have 2 spaces i went for a tall and unconventional format.
How was the illustration used: printed book
How did you make this work: The biggest challenge was how will i show the world above the floor and in the sewage, so one thing i did was the tall format which helped me move around the characters and give the readers the feeling that they are running down through the building.
The second thing that helped me make all the parts feel organic is the small colour palate.
