My submissions for the narrative art award from SCBWI

[kirsten-mcg]

@Asyas_illos I love your submission! I'm still scrambling to try to finish mine. The theme was so hard for me!

[Asyas_illos]

@kirsten-mcg I didn’t realize the deadline was so close, I only started these a the day before yesterday! I cheated a little bit though, I had these sketches on hand from a book dummy I had stashed away( I have probably a million things on the “back burner”)

[Asyas_illos]

@kirsten-mcg I know probably everyone and their grandma did insects, but it was the best I could do on short notice, I somehow always miss the announcements ‍️

[Kim Rosenlof]

@Asyas_illos So cute! I am trying to finish mine. I have struggled coming up with something unique, but I feel like mine will probably be similar to others.

[Asyas_illos]

@Kim-Rosenlof mines definitely not unique lol and to be honest it doesn’t really tell much of a story either, (sighs) next time!

[kirsten-mcg]

@Asyas_illos You always amaze me at how fast you are, and how good your work turns out! It takes me sooooo looooong!

[Asyas_illos]

@kirsten-mcg I just have extra time is all️

[Kim Rosenlof]

@Asyas_illos I really like it and I think there is a story especially with the top panel. I like that she is wearing something that copies the butterfly. I like that idea.

I have struggled with a creative lull for the past few days, I think the sheer amount of rejections I’ve been getting has taken more of a toll than I would like, so to battle that I decided to just do something super simple and quick, just to create something… I made this concept cover for the light princess, and I’m thinking I’ll might go back to refine it (and fix all the wonky parts and all of the flatness) once I stop feeling so low, but for now this is how she will remain.

I was commission to do this piece for a friend. It is Cabo Arch, Mexico. Just wanted to share. It turned out real nice! Thanks guys.

Hi again,

My first character sheet! I took @NessIllustration Picture Book Portfolio Prompt classes and this was a choice from one of the assignments. I learned a lot about what I could achieve, after getting over myself quite a bit. And learned I still have much to learn.

Question though; I did this mainly traditionally but edited it on Clip Studio (placement/arrangement). Do I now need to call myself a traditional/digital illustrator? I do hope to be working with placement and maybe the colour portions in the future on a digital program. Thanks,

[Mia Clarke]

Anyone else joining #folktaleweek next month?

[Kristen Lango]

@Mia-Clarke I'm joining! I'll be posting about it soon!
