SEPTEMBER CONTEST: Ink Fairy

[SunnySommerset]

Happy Ink-Fairy Day in honor of InkTober. Same-o-same-o: ran out of time, but had fun anyway trying to make my digital look as natural inky as possible! Thanks SVS!

My eleventh hour entry: the ink fairy.

Enjoy! And best of luck to those doing inktober! May your ink also be magical!

@Gary-Wilkinson great entry. Love it. This made me wanting to pick up ink and pen, and getting away from my digital tablet

@miranda-hoover thank you!
(I like your picture a lot. I had a very similar concept idea originally)

[Anna Lindsay]

@miranda-hoover This is brilliant! I love the design of the ink fairy - super cute and unique.

@ruth I love your illustration. The props are my favorite.

[Jessica Jolicoeur]

@Chris-Philpot This is such an original and unique way to interpret the prompt. It cracls me up a bit.

[Coley]

@miranda-hoover thanks so much. Yours is absolutely wonderful , as always ️

[Coley]

@Laurasketches such a pretty fairy! This has a bit of a Loish feel to me! I could see her doing something like this. Cool work!

[Chris Philpot]

@Jessica-Jolicoeur Thanks so much! I tried to come up with 10 distinct concepts (not versions of the same concept) this month and was able to get much weirder ideas on paper.

@Laurasketches This is beautiful! I love her. Was this digital?

[miranda-hoover]

@Annabishop Thank you

[SunnySommerset]

@Gabby-Correia Love how inky black your fairy is.

@kimmypie Thank you!
I really like your squid ink fairy, and just love Ellie's expression and her victory dance

@dafoota thank you!

[Laurasketches]

@K-Flagg Thank you so much--yes, she is in digital ink. And @Coley Thank you, too! I've been looking at Loish quite a lot lately, as I've recently purchased her book... so, I suppose her influence has shown up in my work.

@Sara-Nilsson I don’t understand why yours wasn’t chosen. I wish they would explain why some really good ones don’t get chosen. I love yours.
