Here’s my entry for January. Like many others, my goal is do an entry each month. There’s so much amazing talent here! It’s great to be a part of this forum.

@KaraDaniel great concept! It’s kind of where I went with mine too. You are very talented.

@juliemillardart thank you! Your piece turned out great, I love their expressions. I like the addition of the little squirrel too, so cute. ️ This was a fun challenge!

@NelsonYiap Very cool design! Love the treatment of the silhouette.

I was inspired by Winnie the Pooh. Always walking in circles and wondering whose footprints he's seeing. =)x

@burvantill I love this image. So poetic. The design and the composition are so good.

@xin-li THANKYOU !

@burvantill oh, I like this so much! Wonderful posture and expression of the bear and a really lovely quality to the line / colour / texture. I'm guessing watercolour? What did you use for the linework - I can't tell if pencil or pen?

[burvantill]

@neschof I inked the line work separately and merged it with the watercolor in Photoshop. The line is different colors because I used photoshop voodoo to manipulate them. Some day this year I will make a YouTube tutorial on how I do that.

@RG-Spaulding Thankyou!

[KaraDaniel]

@burvantill I thought of Pooh too when I first saw the prompt but I couldn't come up with a good thumbnail...you nailed it though! Cute!

[NicolaSchofield]

@burvantill oh, brilliant, I'll look out for that!
