      Played around in Procreate yesterday using some new brushes I bought. The Overlay brushes were made specifically to give different textures to patches of flat color, and they facilitate a "cut paper" effect that I've never really explored before. I may have to do some more of this in a more narrative direction. I can see why cut paper collage is so interesting for children's illustration--the emphasis on shape is really freeing somehow. My little flowers aren't perfect by any means--I have some line issues and highlight/shadow issues, but it was a really great experience to just play with something without worrying about how I was going to use it or how it was going to serve me in the big picture. Lots of fun!

        My boys have a garden every year since they were really little . Every fall my mother in law ( who was the lead on the gardening anyhow!), gets a photo of them by the sunflowers. I decided to do an illustration of one of those photos. ❤️ I might do more. It was really fun for a mom who now has teenagers and misses the little ones!

          For a bit of fun I thought I would do one of the other thumbnails I had for the "Dragonfly" contest. It's a bit easier as i'm using a lot of the same colors, but still a lot to consider.

              Today my fiddling detail brain took over my sketching process. But I'm still drawing and sketching. Going to keep picking at this. This is a WIP and detail from a larger image. Starting new job Tuesday. Hoping I still have time for art ♥️

                    Looking at a lot of comic books this weekend inspired me to make a cover featuring my nephew who is turning 21 tomorrow.
                    I’m giving it to him as a gift but I think I’m going to work on it some more and give it to him again after. Lol. Gotta love digital. Lol

                      I STRUGGLE SO BAD WITH COLOUR & LIGHT, SO I'm doing the 'PAINTING COLOUR & LIGHT 2.0' course by Will Terry, which is excellenté, and trying to apply the concepts to some illustrations I'm doing for a friend's self-published insect fantasy (demographic 9-13 yr old boys). The front cover's been fun because he wanted it loosely styled on the poster art for the 1990's movie 'Army of Darkness', anyone remember that one? Might have gone a bit nuts with texture's and grit and FX, but I love all that stuff 😁

                            This month I have decided to go back to the basics and start retaking the svs courses to learn perspective better. I am trying to home in my skills and figure out what feels right.

                            This is my WIP so far obviously done with ruler and reference but once I finish here I'm going to try more free hand and continue my practice. I feel I have learned alot on this piece so far but probably too a bit of a jump when I went straight from book case to Victorian Era architecture 😅
