MALLIÉ - Lot 6

MALLIÉ VINCENT MALLIÉ THE QUEST FOR THE TIME BIRD - BEFORE THE QUEST L'Omégon (T.8), Black And White Original cover for the deluxe edition to be published in 2025. Signed. Watercolor and colored inks on paper 46 × 61 cm (18.11 × 24.02 in.) "This illustration will be the cover for the album's deluxe edition. It's in the same spirit as the cover of the current edition. The challenge was to create an illustration in direct color. I tinted the Indian ink with red acrylic so that the outline of the drawing was not a deep black that would have weighed down the whole. I was able to play with the intensity of the inking according to the light, and I used watercolors for the coloring. I quite like the end-of-day atmosphere created by the watercolor textures on the faces, and I admit to being quite happy with the color rendering."
