MARCH CONTEST: Lucky
-
Feelin' lucky?? Then this just might be the prompt for you!
Spring is just around the corner, and to brighten up our monthly challenge we thought the prompt “Lucky” would only be appropriate.
As luck would have it, there are many directions you can go with this prompt: good luck, bad luck, beginner’s luck, Lady Luck, luck of the draw!
Just try not to rely on dumb luck for this challenge!
For this prompt, focus on crafting a creative concept with a clear story. Need some helpful strategies for doing this? Check out Will Terry’s new course Developing Great Visual Stories. Your illustration can be any format (e.g. spot illustration, full-page illustration, etc.).
As always, be sure to submit via the Critique Arena website.
Please note: the Submit Your Art! button will now take you to your SVSLearn student account, where you will be prompted to log in and upload your image in the Critique Arena course. Let us know if you run into any issues!
And, feel free to post your finished version here too so we can all love on it! (If you are looking for feedback, please start a new thread
)Entries are due Mar 31! Best of luck everyone!

I entered both of these even though the story is clearer in the second

Tried a new style this month. I have a long way to go across the board on illustration skills, but wandering if I had been using a style that didn't really connect with people on top of the needed growth. Hope y'all like this.
Good luck, everyone!

@Cayleen hah!

@KevinTreaccar, I’m not sure I understand what the story is in your painting.
-
@Cayleen This concept is so clever and funny!

@crispalomino She stepped off her blanket to pick up a dollar and a bell fell out of the sky right where she had been sitting.
Thank you for the feedback. There’s still time to figure out if I can save/clarify it or if I can get a second entry in that’s more clear.

@Johanna-Kim Ha! Thank you!

Well no one is particularly 'lucky' in my illustrations but there are sprites selling 3 types of luck!
So I doubt I'll be chosen for critique arena because I may have missed the mark but I'm happy with how the image turned out. I learned a lot in my process where I'm blending a sketchy line art with a sort of comic book coloring feel.Thanks for looking and good luck everyone!

Random flock of birds put this girl in a spot of bad luck

@KevinTreaccar I think the direction you're moving in style wise looks great. Keep up the great work.

@KathrynAdebayo Thank you!

a lucky duck may not be as lucky as he thinks...

This month was a struggle for me! I just did not get an idea I liked that would fit into one page. So here we are. But I'm loving that we know the prompts ahead of time now. It's amazing what a few extra days/weeks of letting an idea simmer can do for the creative process!
