Contextual reference

These are just two from my pinboard but these are the best I've found that are also for Tove Jansson's work and What I've used as my main reference. I love the ocean in this top one it's a beautiful colour and the pale lines really soften it while making sure it's not just a block of colour.
This second one is for the same short story that I want to make my front cover as well as some interior illustrations. this one shows everything I want mine to be but I think I'd prefer a little more detail than just the shapes. and I don't love the grey on top. Something that has obviously worked for both of these though, is the texture overlaying the image. I think I should try using a texture for mine as well.
