@braydin-hawlette I better be able to buy this book by next Christmas.

Studying the way rabbits move I am playing with Frame animation and thought wouldn't it be cool to make a short GIF!
Anyone have experience doing this? Creating moving images is on my radar...

So much great work on here.

This was my entry for the second picturehooks competition this month.

@Kristen-Lango it looks beautiful! What did you use for materials?

[Chantal Goetheer]

@von_Nimmermehr what a great idea to illustrate your own christmas cards! Never again looking at what is in the shop and thinking , hmmm. Hadn't crossed my mind. We usually use a family pic. Need to remember for next year.

[Kristen Lango]

@Chantal-Goetheer Thank you! I first use water soluble crayon and pencil (so a watercolor base) and then I go in with wax based colored pencils (prismacolors) for additional layering and details
I'm very open with posting about my process and how I make my work, you can see some of that in this video: color charting a piece
I also have other videos on how to use carand'ache crayons
Hope this is a help to you!

XD i have no Family (Husband and children) so i guess it would be awkward to send pictures of myself as Christmas Cards. But i love to send my own Cards so it seemed pretty obvieous to me, to just draw them.

i have been doing this for 4 years now, and the feedback is so so sweet. And my Friends keep the Postcards and frame them.
