      @AngelinaKizz I'm seeing a bird with a broken wing watering a pot of cotton balls. It seems to be trying to grow a cloud. Maybe it misses flying and being among the clouds, so it's growing some for itself? Composition seems fine, but the story is still a bit fuzzy I think.

        @Johanna-Kim thankyou! I need to figure out how to make it clearer that he wants to make his own cloud to play in since he can’t fly with his friends.

          @AngelinaKizz Sounds like my guess was very close. And now I see the birds above. At this rough stage, I hadn't noticed them among the clouds. Maybe the packaging for the cotton balls can also show birds? Then I think you idea would be crystal clear.

            @AngelinaKizz maybe creating a sort of kite or mobile or cloud light? Could help with story? Have it hanging from the tree some how?

              @Asyas_illos I’m not sure I can envision it… I’m sorry…

                @AngelinaKizz maybe if you added a little garden tag in the pot with a silhouette of him playing on the ground with a cloud, as a sort of “after” image? 260FACEA-F192-4075-9DBD-DF3A5654E355.jpeg

                    @Asyas_illos I feel a bit brain fried (we’re in choas too) so it’s probably that and not you.

                      @AngelinaKizz I think she meant having the homemade clouds hanging on strings like this type of toys? Because now to me I read it as the bird wanting to grow bean sprout because my kid came back from school with a bean sprout growing on pieces of wet cotton balls. Haha. Having the cotton balls hanging will clarify the "clouds" concept

                          @AngelinaKizz Looks like you have an idea with a story going now. The story is cute.

                                @Asyas_illos thanks!!! I used a scrappy ink nib brush, that gets darker with every stroke.
