These are self-assigned sketches of the chapter pages of the first book in the Artemis Fowl series of chapter books. I took a key sentence or two and used that point of reference for the chapter. Note: the passages highlighted below are © Eoin Colfer.
Top left: Chapter 1 - The Book: "She opened her knobbly fingers. Lying in her palm was a tiny golden volume the size of a matchbox." I did this sketch in the waiting room at the doctor's office.
Top right: Chapter 2 - Translation: "With a craft knife and ruler, he dissected the first page of the Book and reassembled it in parallel rows." I think the symbols on the dissected page were created by Eoin Colfer because they appear on the book cover and on the pages.
Bottom: Chapter 3 - Holly: "Holly Short had nut-brown skin, cropped auburn hair, and hazel eyes. Her nose had a hook and her mouth was plump and cherubic, which was appropriate considering Cupid was her great-grandfather." Holly Short is a fairy (an elf, technically) who works for a police force known as the LEPrecon.
There are nine chapters in the first book. My goal is to get them read and sketched by the weekend.
