              This illustration was technically challenging for me every step of the way, but I think it's time to let it go. I'm really enjoying everyone's different take on the prompt. Good luck and stay safe, everyone:)

                    @JoshSchouwstra Wow Josh! This perspective really works well. I love the reference to the Minotaur and that it takes the concept to a new place. Really nice!

                            In Isolation, I have mostly been watching old films and TV shows. Then drawing pixel art all night long. The 8-bit lifestyle.
                            "I Can't Get No Isolation" featuring Pixel Kong.

                                Tried something a little different this month. It's a combination of traditional watercolor and digital. Update: changed the lighting to more of a night scene.

                                  I haven't submitted to any contest's this year, but that was for personal growth. Over the past 5 months I have had a lot fun experimenting and finding a technique I enjoy to use. I started a series of alien illustrations and isolation hit a idea for me. Here is my submission.

                                    @Heather-Boyd Thanks! I can't take total credit for the idea, though, my wife suggested the minotaur 😁

                                      @JoshuaDages Thanks! My wife suggested the using the minotaur in the prompt, but I was also inspired by Jun Chiu's The Cursed Girl which is the story of Madusa.

                                            Hi, all. My inspiration comes from pre-Covid-19 days. Being the new kid can be particularly hard and “isolating” at lunch time, leaving one fiddling with a milk carton and not eating much food. I explored patterns to provide the energy for the noise/conversation from others in the room.
