      I like the limited pallette. I wish I knew more about the children's book scene but if you're listening to the podcast then you pretty much know everything I know.

      I think as far as digital painting goes you're definitely on the right track. Some of the hair strokes look a bit overdone, but the picture holds very well overall. I look forward to seeing more of your progress.

            Welcome Melina! So you are taking art courses at a university? Nice! Yea, when I was in art school, I didn't have much creative freedom at first, but when you take the higher level courses, typically you will have much more creative freedom.
            Love your art! Looking forward to seeing more!
            Good Luck!

                  @nyrrylcadiz Hey! Thank you very much! I was taking illustration at university but I’ve found it to be very ridgid in creative freedom. Love drawing character and I’m currently watching videos and reading up on perspective and environment design. I love the idea of showing the worlds that my character live in. What is it that interests you? ☺️☺️

                            @melinahealy i haven’t been to art school but I guess that’s just the way it is starting out. They’re trying to teach you all the basics so they don’t want you to go all stylistic that early in the process. From what I’ve heard that rigidity will loosen up once you get to the higher years and your instrcutors will leave you more to your own devices, to find your own voice so to speak. I wish you all the best in your schooling. Just hang in there! Things will get better.
