        @Aleksey One of my very favorite writers--I've read everything he wrote. Amazing Maurice would be awesome!

          @Johanna-Kim I love The Giver. It is definitely a classic and I would love to see what you would do with it!

            @Heather-Boyd I'm sure that would be fine. As long as its not made up and it clearly defines what is in the book.

              Cheers Chip, I like the prompt. I think Lord of the flies would suit your style really well too.

                  OOOO! Just saw this - pretty excited to see what everyone comes up with, and I love that we're going with well known stories.
                  I think I'm going to go with either the short story "The Yellow Wallpaper" or the YA "Island of the Blue Dolphins." Anyone familiar with those stories?

                  Also @Heather-Boyd - my friend told me the story for Stone Soup while camping once - brings back good memories.

                  I also agree with @peteolczyk for @Chip-Valecek - I think Lord of the Flies would be way up your alley.

                    @kaitlinmakes Both of those would be so cool. I read Island of the Blue Dolphins LONG ago but remember really liking it. But I've got to say that I think Yellow Wallpaper would be AMAZING and darkly fun !!

                      Hey everybody,
                      I did The Knight in Rusty Armor by Robert Fisher. Below the piece.

                      TheKnight.jpg

                      I read the book many years ago; but here is the best book summary I found.

                      http://www.jfdperfsolutions.com/modules/news/personal_improvement-book_summary~3A_~26quot~3Bthe_knight_in_rusty_armor~26quot~3B_by_robert_fisher.html

                      The story is great and I highly recommend it. It is the story about a person finding the real values of family and facing hard challenges.

                      Thank you and good luck,
                      Jose

                            Hi, all! This is my first post. Eek! I'm excited to just dive in. I went with a classic - Little Red Riding Hood, but with a spookier vibe. Pen and ink with watercolor, and a little lighting work/text on the computer. Lots of great art on these forums. Best of luck to everyone! -Marie Little Red Marie Burghard March Contest 2019.jpg

                              @WindyWyoGal I like it. A darker take on the story.

                                This is my first entry into one of these contests. I hope I’m up to par with everyone. I decided to go with one of my all-time favorite books, The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. If you haven’t read it, close your computer right now, go out, and purchase it immediately. It’s worth your time!

                                  @alicia Your snow scene is quite nice and that added little snow "in the real world" so to speak 🙂 .

                                    @WindyWyoGal It reminds me of a paper cut out and a pop up book. 🙂 That's nice thanks.
