Ashputtel Sketches

I'm illustrating posters and promo art for a stage production of Ashputtel.

Ashputtel is the original fairy tale of Cinderella by the Brother's Grimm. If you've never read it... be warned! It's not the warm and fuzzy Disney version. I don't want to spoil it, but death, visiting graves, self mutilation, and birds pecking eyes out are big plot points.

I'm in the early thumbnail sketch stage getting some loose ideas on paper. More later.

  1. is that the one where one of the step sisters cuts off her toes, so her foot would fit in the slipper?

    1. Yup, it is...and the other step sister does something more cringe inducing just to fit into the slipper.

  2. Ooooh, so girly & pretty! Can't wait for the 'pecking the eyes out' thumbnails! :D

    1. We'll see, although I'm tempted, I don't think I'm going to actually illustrate the graphic moments.
