@Asyas_illos I love the evolution! Cohesiveness is definitely there, your unique textures and shapes are soooo cool. Your use of color to define these two elements always inspires me, the way you do it just looks so effortless until I try to replicate this in my own work ha ha! 
So beautiful..
Also something about your work reminds me of Eric Carle. There's such an organic, highly marketable vibe so consistent that makes me want to hang out there

@ArtistErin thank you, itās mostly just experimenting with different colors, layers and opacity along with things like overlay and color dodge until I get colors I like, Iāll have a general idea in my head but I canāt always create it so easily.
@Asyas_illos beautiful and a very consistent look and mouse! Love the colours. I was just wondering if the underground scene is like your glow one a cross section of soil with a tunnel or is it some sort of a narrow canyon? How the mushrooms grow suggests the latter one to me. Curious what is the story with this little fellow's travels? But it looks great.
@Chantal-Goetheer itās just supposed to be like a crevice in the ground I guess. Iām having fun with this mouse, perhaps as I continue the why to his travels will be revealedā¦
Think Iām going to start another
Oh wow! I'm really digging these a lot. I love the vibrant colors your using with these. 
Funny enough I'm working slowly on something slightly similar. I gave myself the task of making a short story involving a small Shrew who has to make their way from one end of my property to the other while meeting a few challenges and characters. I even have a few drawings of my shrew among some Mushrooms. Though quite different in style and mood from yours.
Awesome work! Looking forward to seeing more, I'll give you a follow on Instagram. Cheers!
Draw, Draw, Draw, Draw and Draw Some More!

@Blitz55 thank you! And Iād love to see yours as well
Ok I donāt know why I added this character I thought this one needed something else but I didnāt know what then this popped into my head. But it doesnāt add to the story in any way I could change the mouses eye to be looking that direction, but I could just take the birb off entirely. What do you guys think?
@Asyas_illos I think if you made the mouse noticing the bird this could work really well! Right now the bird is a little distracting because I'm not really sure why he's there. But when I imagine the mouse looking at the bird I suddenly want to know more! The story gets more interesting to me.
@Asyas_illos I would save the bird part for a different scene. Maybe during a rain shower.
@Asyas_illos If you squint or make the picture small the mouse blends in with the background a bit, which is probably why the blue bird sticks out.
Could the mouse have something on him that is a contrasting color?
I donāt know what the story is but if it would fit thematically, maybe add an element of danger by having a snake off to the side or a predatory bird silhouette in the sky?
Do bugs or animals live in āmushroom landā and the mouse is passing by?
@kayleenartlover I think youāre right Iāll probably use it in another scene
@Asyas_illos I do like the bird (or another background character if you want to switch it out). I think that the mouse doesn't need to be looking at it, but you could add a smaller, less prominent background into the spread, that's looking at and responding to the bird. That'd be a fun way to have the world feel more lived in, and still have the mouse focused on their journey.
@ajillustrates thanks for the feedback, I have since relocated the bird to another scene, but I still would like to build up more of a lived in world, as you suggested. I will be brainstorming some more characters!
@Asyas_illos I think since the bird isnāt relevant to the story it just feel a a bit distracting. I think normally itās good to have a secondary story going on in an image but in this case since the primary story isnāt super complicated it may not work here
I think using colors from the previous pages is a great way to keep it all connected! Looking forward to seeing more
@Griffin-McPherson thanks yep I moved the bird saving him for another. In accordance with your portfolio questions Iām looking to make mine more cohesive as a whole including colors.
Some spreads Iāve started the second I did a while back but wasnāt sure where to go with it, but it seems to fit in perfectly with this
How itās setting up as a sequence, I donāt know why I chose this canvas size but I do love it
Made some changes to this one, still havenāt thought of what characters to add though.
Ok I donāt know why I added this character I thought this one needed something else but I didnāt know what then this popped into my head.
