Process
When I was drawing, I tried to rely on my own imagination. I thought about a simple place where I always imagine mysterious creatures which are hiding from human eyes. 
And I thought about woods, of course. The first idea is just about these creatures and a boy and a girl, who went through the forest with many fantasy animals, sitting in the branches and hiding at leaves and trees. I made several sketches to show variation of composition. 
 
And the second idea was also about two children running down the hill, with clouds looking like fantasy creatures. I thought it can be something simple and very familiar at the same time. Everyone often looks at the clouds and sees things, and it is kinda like the worlds intersect.
Thank you for watching!
