The publishers I am in contact with like my animals, but say I still have to work on human/kids, so last week and this week I did the daily exercise:

-
@MichaelaH I will always love your imaginative animals best but your humans are fabulous too!
-
@BichonBistro Thank You so much for liking my work
-
Did they specify what you needed to improve with your humans? I think some of them are pretty good, and that last one is great! Life drawing really helps this stuff, if you can't get to a class, just get to a busy area and do some gestures for 30-60 minutes. You will be amazed how much you can pick up and how it translates to your work after a little while.

@Amanda-Jean I almost never draw ppl, only animals, so I think they didn't like this less amount of ppl I ever drew to that point, I liked to draw animals more, but now I like ppl also. I never really exercised ppl before. I am going to frankfurt book fair this october and I will get feedback there, I will take my new ppl illustrations also with me.

Process on August Superstition
I didn't have much time for this one. At first the storm was coming from left to right, but after I got some some feedback I changed it, because I wanted the first focus to be on the bird and the calm scene.
