      @jvartandillustration Oh yes, they really can be. OMG. I used to paint Trompe L'Oeil. It consumed me... and I oftentimes way underbid and it was easy to slip into scope creep. I idolized Graham Rust, who would only contract 1 mural a year. But his murals took on a life of their own, and he was paid handsomely for it. Great job on yours by the way! Hope you can wrap this up soon, for your well being! πŸ™‚

        @ArtistErin Thank you so much, Erin! This was fun to work on. I owe the perspective to a great reference photo.

          @Yogita-Chawdhary I Try to honor perspective first! It's my greatest challenge to date. I feel like it can make or break a composition. It's one of those things too that confounds so many! I need to visit the library again and pick up some books on the subject. πŸ™‚

            @ArtistErin Totally feel you on that! I honestly struggle with it too. I always have this clear vision or angle in my head, but when it comes to actually drawing it on the canvas and lining up the perspective, it’s tough! I find myself relying on references a lot to get it right. I really need to make time to study it more and get a proper hang of it too. πŸ˜…

              @AthenaBeana @demotlj Thank you both so much!

              Your comments were really helpful, and you understood the story correctly. The princess is sad because her prince has turned into a frog, and she longs for him, which is why the picture of them both is on the table. The princess is disgusted by the frog eating, while the frog enjoys his worms.

              I changed the princess to look at the frog and made the table a bit shorter. I hope the image is clearer now.

              I also tried adding green to the worms to indicate that they smell.

                  This is a sketch I did in Central Park while I was visiting New York City which I scanned into Procreate when I got home and painted digitally. I was really amused by seeing the pigeons perched on the characters' heads and hands. I'm sure NYC natives don't give the pigeons a second thought but they brought such whimsy to the scene for me.

                    If you can’t decide whether to walk it or wear it, just do both- with a little sass! πŸŠπŸ‘œ

                      I suddenly felt like making a colorful illustration because I think my HFYA November piece is a bit dull in terms of color and that makes me quite disappointed about it... I'm almost considering making a completely new, more colorful picture for it.

                              I was feeling crafty so this image for the HTFYA prompt was done using cut out pieces of paper to create a bit of depth. It was so much fun to not have to stare at a screen and just go crazy with paper and pencils.

                                      @MarcRobinson This!! I love it!!! Are you planning on making more of these? I was actually also thinking about draw-cut-glue illustrations, but it took too much time and I gave up. Seeing how you tackled this is AWESOME! 😁

                                        @mag hey thanks Mag. I had a blast doing it but it takes ages, so I'm not planning on doing another just yet. I think I'm gonna take some time off to work solely on a personal project. I keep getting distracted by these prompts!
