@Asyas_illos Thanks for sharing your progress with us! Is this for a banner or children's book? I like how it's encouraging children to read.

@Coreyartus Exciting project! This is big--and I'm guessing it's been time-consuming! Way to go on dedication. At least one of my favorites, if not my favorite is the fall one.

The leaves on the surface of the water are neat. Are these nature scenes inspired by places near you?

[Asyas_illos]

@MelissaJacie yes it’s a banner/masthead entry for my regional SCBWI.

This wip started as a rabbit road race, but it ended up in Oz…

@Jose-A-Nieto That is beautiful! I love the point of view and the color choices, nice job too with not making the background too detailed.

@Kristen-Lango Thank you! Getting the perspective right was tough but a lot of fun

[Asyas_illos]

@Jose-A-Nieto great perspective! I really like your style, and that poor bald guy back there that’s me lol

[Jose A Nieto]

@Asyas_illos Thanks! You and I both

@MelissaJacie No, actually, I go to Unsplash.com for my photo reference. I just did one using a friend's pic that he let me use, and that was fun! I spent last night finding winter landscapes and thinking about composition and layout on the page with each image's inspiration.

The images on Unsplash are all royalty-free with no attribution required, and it's my "go-to" spot to find images that are quite lovely and safe to use. They curate each photo so people can't just upload whatever they want. They're owned by Getty Images, who have no plans on creating a paywall and don't want to in the future--they want it to be free. So It should remain so for the duration if we're lucky.

It's worth checking out!
