Our SVS Virtual Studio July ⛵️

Hi @Janette, I really like the style and color choices!
If I pretended to be an art director offering a critique for SCBWI, I would say the following:
-
The piece feels heavy on the right. Possibly add text to upper left to add narrative for storytelling.
-
I’m not sure I understand what’s happening. Is the man selling his cat, or did he sell something already? He’s flipping a coin back, so…
-
The cat is cute, but she looks like she’s hovering on outside of the mans arm. Should she be on the inside?
-
You might consider lightening up the curvy road behind the man since his arms and neck almost bend in with the road.
Hope this helps. Also, just realized I probably shouldn’t offer feedback in this forum, so please let me know if you prefer I delete this post.

Road trip adventures! Hope everyone's summer has been great so far!

@Janette This is so exciting! It looks great! Please drop a link when it's available!

@Janette I had a similar image in my little self-published Amazon book. It was cool to see yours ("great minds..." kinda thing maybe
?). I love that angle! The bare light and pull string combo in the foreground really heighten that empty feel. Lovely work and congrats again!
-
@Jeremy-Ross Yeah, I need to add text, becaise its the Crooked Man Nursery Rhyme, which would explain the image.
Art is hard.

@Janette Living the dream, way to go
I'm already loving how this is coming out. Keep on keeping on -
Cool @Janette! That will definitely balance it out.

I’m working on some cute animal development and ideas for an aquarium story. I’m so happy I could convey at least a little cuteness.

Sometimes doing good to others can have a magical and unexpected warm impact on them, even if they don't understand it!!

@kylebeaudette these are all awesome! This guy kind of reminds me of a more sophisticated version of the sneezes from Puff the Magic Dragon.
-
Just another warm up fanart that went too far....
Anyone else having the issue of starting a little something and get carried on to finish it?
-
@kylebeaudette I love it!

This is a slow month for me - didn't manage to make much progress on my current projects but I wanted to share something funny about me in the "Virtual Studio" - this is my daily challenge for some years now, it entertains my family and friends, makes for a sort of family journal and keeps me drawing daily no matter what. The name is Porchi. (A screen capture of the album showing last two weeks drawings)

Recently made this commission of a character that has become one my favorites to draw!
Link from legend of Zelda!

@kylebeaudette I showed my son your Instagram page...you've got another fan! He thinks you should have a museum exhibit.
