@Robert-Henderson Thank you Robert for the kind words! I appreciate it very much! It's been a while since my last contest entry. It's nice to be back and being part of a great group of illustrators!

Can anyone help me, I want to know how to get my image the right size for posting here, as when I usually post work it's too large. Do I just resize the original image within the software, and if so what's an ideal size?

[AlliFaith]

@PenAndrew I'm not sure if this answers your question but to post here it just needs to be less than 500kb. So I use the same size and dimensions as what I send to the critique area.

[PenAndrew]

@AlliFaith Kind of but I want to make it easier to look at here. Not needing to scroll down as much.

[Asyas_illos]

@PenAndrew if you keep it a square shape you shouldn’t need to scroll so much. I do my entries for the contest on 2048 x 2048 pixels post them here and wherever else, then resize down to the required 1200x 1200 or smaller, for the critique arena. Hope that helps. I don’t need to scroll a bunch on that size, also it probably depends a little on what it’s being viewed on.

Calm during a storm. I have a memory of sitting with my dad on Pelee Island in Canada. It was the first time I wasn't afraid of a storm. He explained to. me that sInce light travels faster than sound, first you see the lightning flash, then a few minutes later you hear the thunder. Watching it from far away and learning about the science of storms made me feel less frightened.

@HollyOakley Thanks Holly!

@PenAndrew I like to make a second file that's the critique arena ratios, and then copy and paste my canvas. I like having the original size to work from if I want to go back in and rework it
