      I also prefer the first one and with Lee's comments it would make it even better.

          Leontine, your animals are awesome! I agree with Lee's composition comments, but once you make a few adjustments this will be amazing! I'm looking forward to seeing this one finished...

            @Beatriz-"Bett" I'd definitely check out the "Creative Composition" video - it explains the problems with a dead-center image and tons more! That lesson alone has totally improved my artwork.

                @Lee-White Thanks Lee, I think you are right. As I tried to keep it simple for 2-4 year old. I probably lost track in creativity. Thank you!

                    @Leontine definitely go with a Noah's Ark theme for sure. Really looking forward to seeing what you come up with based on the input from Lee!

                        Hi Leontine. I'm asking the age because I'd like to learn more about perception, visual literacy and levels of meaning for childrens.

                        I think if we are going to illustrate for different levels, we must learn what children can recolet from images in diferent ages, No matter if the parents will support the reading of the images or not.

                        As an example, I think in your image is not easy to recognize the boat and the animals are too close, like a grape cluster. I guess it could confuse a 2 years old kid. We recognize immediately the boat because we know the story of Noah.

                        I'm not sure about that, so I'd like to get specilized answers to that matter.

                        I love your style. I'll paying attention to the upgrades.

                        Cheers.
