SVS Virtual Studio FEBRUARY 2023

[ArtMelC]

I completed #Storystorm challenge in January (30 PB ideas in 31 days) so celebrating with this little illo. The rows of pink blobs at the bottom are my idea trackers, I added 1 blob for each idea written down. It was a very inspiring exercise...even got some partial manuscripts out of it. Time to edit and polish soon.

I've been working through the 100+ things to include in your portfolio to get mine finished. Would love critique on this!

@Tom-Harshberger Is the “100 Things” an SVS class? I need in on this haha

EDIT: nvm, I Googled it and found the class! Now I CAN get in on this

[Tom Harshberger]

@StudioHannah It's a great one. Really helpful to get my ducks in a row!

Hi SVS Fam!

I’m excited to share that I recently opened a merch shop on Threadless to make my art available for fine art prints and apparel.

I wanted to make my art available without having to print and ship myself due to limited time and resources, so I’m giving this a shot.

Please know I’m not trying to promote or spam this group; but rather, sharing my progress with this amazing community as I continue with you all on this journey in making art.

Thanks for taking a peak; feel free to let me know what you think!

@Asyas_illos love it, Asya!

@Melissa_Bailey I love the balance in the composition and the mouse is super cute!!

[ksfabian]

@Asyas_illos I love this lineless style. It's like a balance between comic style and painterly.

[Valerie Light]

I've been missing the regular monthly prompts lately! Anyone know when they will resume?

I am waiting for my first book to publish in March with Arcadia Children's Books! In the meantime, I'm learning how to make seamless repeating patterns for licensing. (hopefully)

@Jeremy-Ross Your fruit guys are so fun!!! I hope your shop blows up!!

[Melissa_Bailey]

@ksfabian thanks a bunch! Mice are one of my favorite creatures to illustrate.
