[Chip Valecek]

@carolinebautista I don't see why not. The last month there was a whole puppet setup for the prompt.

@Heather-Boyd Why are you out for a few months?

[Heather Boyd]

@carolinebautista oh because it generally takes me a long time to make a work (esp colour studies with gouache) and I need to catch up on finishing some classes (basic perspective and move to objects in perspective class). Also this month been working on childhoodweek -though its been postponed I have been working on it this week.

thanks for asking,

Hi everyone, here is my entry for the June contest: A very different kind of prompt!

Starting with a set story plot and defined characters was very exciting and challenging in a positive way, had to do some research about where do monkeys and alligators coexist, and decided to go with the Nile River Baboon and Alligator for Bongo and Clyde.

I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Praise God!!!

@franksandovalart I love Clyde’s expression! This is so great, and I appreciate that you did some research for this image, too. Amazing work as always!

@aprilshin
Clyde's expression is my wife favorite part of the illustration

Thank you for your kind words!

@Melanie-Ortins This one has great graphic design elements! I'm a fan of your patterns as well!

@franksandovalart omg this made me lol. the fork and knife

@chrisaakins My 12yo son is with you. His first take was to ask how the monkey would have survived the death roll from the alligator and the being stored underwater for hours or days.

What qualifies as an active svs member? I've been wondering this.

@Coreyartus I really wanted to do something different and much more like an actual assignment.

[Will Terry]

@chrisaakins I should have known I’d be fact checked - lol - I think you’re right about this being a fantasy story!

[Heather Boyd]

@Sarahmaeliz for having a chance to win the contests -subscribers- either the free 30 day or paid subscription.

[Cayleen]

@gavpartridge Do it anyway! I'm sure your take will be fantastic! I love seeing everybody's styles, and you already have the idea and energy in motion, so it'll be different even with a similar composition.
I look forward to seeing your submission, similar or different .

[Melanie Ortins]

@aprilshin Thanks! (My day job is literally as a pattern designer lol, can you tell? )

[aprilshin]

@Melanie-Ortins No wonder! They're really beautiful!
