MARCH ILLUSTRATION CONTEST: OLD AND NEW
-
Is there anything more charming than the "old" tradition of the Kentucky Derby? It's a magical place where you can dream about the time that ladies get all dolled up to go out and gentlemen are just as dapper. Where does the "new" come in? Well, in welcoming new comers and being sweet as honey as you explain that wearing the hat brings good luck. And of course wearing the same hat and dress as the year before just won't do. Every lady loves to shop for her "new" attire that will just let her shine. The hat parade makes the derby "The two greatest minutes in sports."Sometimes hearing the explanations of people's work was the best part of a critique in school. This is a pattern design for spoonflower's "off to the races" challenge. Figured I would share. It fits in the theme? Right?

Ok so my little guy is having trouble deciding whether to sell his old friend and buy a new "terminator" or not. Some objects in his quite messy garage have split opinion about the whole thing. I hope it is all legible. Feel free to leave your comments.

@marsha-kay-ottum-owen Thank you! Iv'e always struggled with photoshop so I got procreate and it's making it a lot easier for me to go digital. I highly recommend it!

@cassie-chancy Good to know! Thanks.

@jason-bowen I love this. Only one thing that kind of bothers me is the man between the book lady and the big guy is in need of some more contrast around the head . It is hard to discern without looking very close. It almost looks like his head is gone or very tiny. Or maybe it's a lady! Now I see the tall hair and the noustache (ha! ). Maybe a little sliver of lighness around the toddler's head too. I like how the book reader really stands out
My older eyes might be part of the problem though. When I clicked on the pic to look at it larger the head was more
defined but I still think it needs a little bit of contrast against the light backing. -
@naters-calderone I love this so much, I have no desire to enter this month because who can top this one. Cracks me up every time I look at it.

new book for an old man...
hello everyone
I read in this forum for some time - now it was finally time to join!This is an older idea of mine which I revised completely and finished with a new style (pencil an digital coloring - never done something like this before). So I thought it fits the contest in the double sense
