My sketch further explored the perspectives I wanted to create: the grapevines that lead the eye towards the cosy house, where a child is playing with its dog. The front is covered in shade, creating a nice contrast between the darker parts in the front and the game of lights on the farm. The father in the shaded front is nearing the house, carrying some vegetables he just harvested. Upon seeing his house and his child, he smiles, because everyting seems as it should be, with lots of details emphasising the effort the man makes to live and farm alongside nature: the bee-hives, recycling waste, a windmill, solar panels, sustainable seeds...

When drawing this kind of illustration, I often deviate from the path that my sketch layed out. But now I was pretty happy with the lines and perspectives of my sketch, so I followed it almost to the letter.

I often change a lot of stuff of the sketch when I start drawaing for real
