'The Shepherdess & the Chimney Sweep' - Jayda


Jayda is the character I have created who's mother owns the figurines of the Shepherdess, Chimney Sweep, and Veronique. I wanted her to be a very real and modern kid with plenty of spunk zaniness to spare!

Thank you to everyone in the Zumba class for letting me draw you!

Assorted Character Designs



'The Shepherdess & the Chimney Sweep'




These are the two leading characters in my interpretation of 'The Shepherdess & the Chimney Sweep'.

I wanted my Shepherdess to be a bit more relatable than the average character. She gets frustrated, exasperated, overly excited, and somewhat romantically unaware.
My Chimney Sweep is a energetic adventurer and a timidly shy romantic.

'The Shepherdess & the Chimney Sweep' - Veronique



This is Veronique, my supreme villainess in my interpretation of 'The Shepherdess & the Chimney Sweep'. She is cruel and composed but psychotically breaks and frazzles when faced with stress.

'The Shepherdess & the Chimney Sweep' - Storytelling Moments/Color Studies



These two moments take place simultaneously in the story. The Chimney Sweep takes The Shepherdess on a dangerous climb up the chimney to look at the stars and share a romantic moment. Meanwhile, Veronique suspects where the two have escaped to and is not pleased to say the least.
