@lizardillo yummy!

@lizardillo At the risk of creating a "situation" for you, these would make an incredilbe matching card game.

[lizardillo]

@ajillustrates I would love to create a card game! I have always wanted to make a game of snap, a top trumps style or battle card game with fun characters. Drawing food is my other love... perhaps 'Sushi Snap' could be a thing! I could do a couple that look almost identical but have a sneaky, sneaky difference.

Hats are awesome. Now with curmudgeonly caretakers.

Last weekend @kaitlinmakes and I went to SoCal to see JAW Coopers art show. That morning we walked over to the Arlington Garden and did some drawing. It was a great environment. I was able to squeeze out 2 plein air value drawings before we had to head back and get ready for the show. I think these are my best so far.

fancy hats, curmudgeonly caretakers and elephantine capybaras

Another red riding hood book cover for the challenge

Tryin' to get more local value in with pencil instead of paint (at least on the characters)

[Coreyartus]

Played with creating a forest and some ghosts today on my livestream. Having fun!

These are the basic skethes for the May Contest "Situation" pieces I plan on making!
Hopefully I ll make it through the deadline.
Old man sure makes mistakes (pic1) but sure is heroic and fearless!!(pic2)

Which one do you think works better?

[lizardillo]

@Georgios-Christopoulos I like the bottom one best as there is a little less text. Are the fish unaware that he is up there ready to jump in as they are all facing away from him, or are they swimming away to escape?

[Georgios Christopoulos]

@lizardillo anaware,just lurking in there.

I'm still chugging along on MerMay. :^) I am both very fond of illustrating mermaids, and very ready to be done.

beautiful! i love the playfulness

[gracewright]

@burvantill I created Eager Enid as part of a Mermay challenge prompt (eager) and I'm pretty happy with how she turned out. I've made her into a youtube process video series too, I'm working on the last instalment this week.

I'm new to the forum so hoping to get my contest piece in this month, fingers crossed/kids permitting

[ajillustrates]

Just a quick mixed-media sketch to clock the start of Children's Book Pro

[lpetiti]

I'm starting to do more illustrations about the ocean, this is the first one in the series (and in a brand new sketchbook no less!)

[Melissa_Bailey]

@ajillustrates LOVE IT! (Is that you as a rabbit?)

[ajillustrates]

@Melissa-Bailey-0 Yep! I guess it is kind of a self portrait.
