      @josegalue25 beautiful oriental style. The use of color leads the eye in a triangle. First the dragonfly, then the fish, then the berries and back to the dragonfly. Blues and grays set them off nicely.

                      @Mary-Toth - what a gorgeous image! I love the character clinging onto the net, but also your colour choices and detailed finish produced with these traditional mediums is so impressive. Itโ€™s polished, skilful and beautiful. Love it!

                            @Chip-Valecek wouldn't it be better to have one extra pinned dedicated wip thread where everyone can post their stuff and ask for it instead of everyone creating his own thread?

                                  Hi Everyone! Here's my entry for this month. Thanks to everyone who gave me advice in my WIP thread!

                                  I thought a fun idea would be for a dragonfly to be learning how to fly with cloud "floaties." However, because clouds are a bit finicky, his mom spends a lot of time coming to the rescue!

                                        @Mary-Toth Thank you so much! It's a color palette I'm definitely not used to, so I wanted to challenge myself a little. Glad it turned out. ๐Ÿ™‚

                                          @Molambo If there was just one thread it would become to large with comments and wouldn't keep everyone crits organized that well.

                                            @Chip-Valecek yeah might be true. discourse or whatever softwareyou use here with the endless pages is not good for such stuff. traditional forums with pages would fit better for such things.
