Certainly!

I’ll gladly start a new thread this week if this isn’t the appropriate place to post.

Start a new thread if you want to answer question or receive feedback, this is purely like walking into a gallery and observing with some niceties lols.

I like your photography-landscape and the wood trunk. And also your chickens but I do agree for the most part your portfolio is not children friendly. But I think as a new dad - children inspiration will come.

I just found this illustrator - I really am entertained by his stories of his kids growing up and his style.

Where was that landscape photograph taken -last photograph on your design page?

If I don’t get back to you I will be returning from a trip in 2 weeks.

@MichaelaH I saw these on discord. So fluffy cute.

I’m ready to ink this. It goes with my previous Little Red Cap illustration, but it’s actually the page before the other. I did the other as part of an assignment for the Visual Storytelling Techniques class. Then Lee assigned another, saying to use the same story. Since I had already illustrated the END of the story I had to work backwards.
I’m hoping these will look good together my portfolio. Sequence and illustrative continuity. I’m also loving the clothes patterns. It’s quite relaxing to draw pattern. No wonder Zentangle was such a hit.

@Heather-Boyd Thanks for sharing! Those little orange balls really add a lot of chaos to the images, I love it. Hopefully a child in my life can help me refocus. It's so easy to start being silly around her, not that she knows much of what's going on just yet.

Unfortunately all the photography in my design page is by other photographers. I'm using them as sort of set pieces to break up my designs and set the scene the designs. I can see how it can be confused as being my work however. I should find another solution if that's the case.

The photo you are liking in particular is by Felix Russell-Saw, and all of the photos come from Unsplash which is a great place for public use photography. Read up on their licensing if you plan on using them for any professional work.

So I had to do an assignment where I analyzed an artifact and present the data with art. I analyzed a Babylon Bee satire on essential oils for men. Here is my visual presentation:

I really had fun with it. Done with color pencils and alcohol markers.

@Braden-Hallett Nice . You should check out EG Keller. He uses some outstanding watercolor brushes that he has developed over time.

Love this thread! Personally, I'm working in some style exploration projects. Most recently (for children's illustration) are these:
