Slowvember 2020
-
I felt inspired to create a Christmas card for Slowvember 2020. Every year I want to send out a promotional piece to clients for Christmas and every year I find reasons why I can't do it. The Slowvember 2020 call to action was the perfect fit for me.
I love illustrating wintery snow scenes with lights in them. I also have felt a tad emotional at times about the state of affairs in the world, in particular, the US, thus I felt called to illustrate a scene with a hopeful message of unity, bringing light into dark times. Those thoughts primarily went into the process of creating my piece. I have put together the different stages of my illustration until its completion.

Hi @AustinShurtliff, sharing my 2020 Slowvember piece in the group post.
I really enjoyed taking my time through each stage, brainstorming, thumbnails, rough comp studies, sketches, color studies, rendering, textures and icing on the cake, or should I say cereal?
This lesson in slowing down helped me sleep on decisions rather than trying to finish the piece. Since I work full-time in engineering and construction, I use any available time after hours to work on my craft.
As ancient wisdom, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
