MAY CONTEST: Fairy Tale Traveler situation

[Katie Carling]

"The ladies were out for luncheon again, and little did they know that this time Wormtown had a hero on it's side."

Ha ha, this was so much fun! The chickens are coming to the garden to eat the worms. Our traveler fairy tale frog will protect them because she is so brave and good. I thought kids would think this is funny. We were camping with our kids and my brother's (8 kids total) and they suggested the hats on the chickens and the nail polish, which you can barely see. I think it's funny when people let their chickens out to graze and call them "the ladies".

I'm Katie and I'm brand new to SVS. This will be my art school (a dream) and I just finished the first class. I loved it and learned so much! I love all of the work you guys have posted here. Wow!

@Asyas_illos @brettb_draws @K-Flagg @jdubz Thank you so much for your encouraging words I can't tell you how many times I had to draw those goblin legs before they even started to make sense!

[Jenwardstudio]

@Janette Such a wonderful illustration! I love how you lead the eye from the mosquito to the frog to the fish to the girl. And the shading - gorgeous!

Snailix got sick of being bullied by Franco the Hedgehog. Tonight at dusk, he got his revenge.

Far from perfect, but it was fun and a growing experience. Good luck, everyone!

[Janette]

OK, here it is ... the final final final lol! I've had so much fun doing these. Seeing LOADS I'd change, but time's running short! Love seeing everyone's work, and so encouraged by the support and help ths group gives.

Hi all, here is my entry for this month. I had a bit of a struggle with this and it’s not quite turned out how I wished but I have to say a massive thanks for all of the help along the way. There’s so many amazing entries. Wow!! (I’m uploading this from on my phone in a campervan so hopefully it’s worked)

[joosterwijk]

Amazing entries everybody! Here is mine, trying out some new techniques and still a bit rough...

@Jeremiahbrown WOW! Amazing job with texture, light, and color. Just awesome work.

[Jeremiahbrown]

@Valerie-Light Thank you so much! I love yours!

This was the first version but I thought it might be a bit much. Remembering I could submit multiple entries I thought why not both?

[brettb_draws]

Uploaded uploaded my entry on Thursday and didn't get round to posting it on here yet. I'm really happy with this it took about a week to create and another few days before that for rough sketches etc.

I uploaded the template version on the critique arena but unfortunately that jpeg was slightly too big to post on here so I used my original jpeg.

Still got a lot to learn, but I'm really happy to have achieved all of the small goals that I set myself with this piece.
