One of the most famous stories
about the personality divided on good and evil, is a The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
– novella that became the universal symbol
of a well-known split personality concept. There are many films
based on Jekyll and Hyde book. A lot of the
authors gave a
visual version of this story. So here's mine. I got an offer
from domestic publisher Makondo to
illustrate Serbian edition of the
cult novel.

I was
not sure which the technique I will use in making illustrations. Each
project, and the character of the project pushed me in
some direction. In this case, a
digital photo collage proved to
be the most ideal technique
to illustrate.

This
technique gives a
very interesting and specific
atmosphere in illustration – an
atmosphere that you can not get if
you use any of the standard
drawing techniques.

More
than ten years ago I did a series of drawings Mister Hyde, not
knowing that I'll be able to
really illustrate Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in the
future. Well, the future is now.
