Calling for the November ALL STARS!!!

Was it just me who was completely stumped this time around? This was agonizing. The open-ended prompts are soooo tough. I completed a cute little illustration of a little girl having a tea party with all her stuffed animal friends, but it was too cliche' so I tried to think of something a little more creative than just being together. So tough. Good luck to everyone! I love the few I see so far!

Done! Now to start drawing some more yetis

[miranda-hoover]

@kimmypie Haha nice!

Agreed! I spent so long agonizing over ideas that I didn't leave myself much time to actually make something

@kimmypie I hear you, this one was hard. I think your tea party illustration would have worked great. I also think the one you went with is awesome and totally unexpected which is cool!! I went the opposite direction and after trying and failing to think of something not cliche, I just gave in! I cringe every time I look at mine now, it feels like a Kinkade painting haha

@EliaMurrayArt oh my gosh! this is amazing!

[burvantill]

@kimmypie I had a tough time on the illustration part. It's like my brain decided to completely forget how to art properly. I'm hoping I pulled it off in the end. You did! This is cute. Nice concept.

Together In Trouble

Time outs are so much more tolerable when your partner in crime is with you.

@EliaMurrayArt this is so beautiful and well done! Very professional work. Did you paint over a pic of your diorama?

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@xin-li adorable ️

Hope I'm not too late!

Sometimes, hiding in plain sight is the solution, but being together to do so is much more effective!

@Gaelle-Grizzly ahahahaha this is too perfect!!!!!

@Gaelle-Grizzly Hahah I love your take on the prompt!

[kimmypie]

@Gaelle-Grizzly LOL love this! Great idea. I like the sweat drop on the fox and the animals holding up branches. SO cute!

[kimmypie]

@miranda-hoover that's exactly what happened to me. I had three complete pieces. This is the one I went with.
Yours looks great. Love the mood and such a cute yeti. Who knew it would be the next prompt?

[kimmypie]

@EliaMurrayArt you did a great job with your little creatures. The image is warm and inviting. There's evidence of a lot of work in it too. Also, Thomas Kinkade made a lot of money lol.

@Nyrryl-Cadiz thank you!!! Yes, I do a lot of editing "in post" - such as the wall paper, the fire, the lighting, the eyes. Anything to clean it up and make it more impactful. I wish I had a full studio set up where I could create the lighting in "real life" - I think that would give it more of a natural feel and less stiff. I'll post a picture of the "before edit" and "after edit" in my wip thread.

[EliaMurrayArt]

@kimmypie hahahaha true!!

[EliaMurrayArt]

@Gaelle-Grizzly this is awesome. I like the style a lot!

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@EliaMurrayArt awesome! you know, despite the actual irl lighting, this piece is still amazing. your characters and their poses are so adorable.

@Nyrryl-Cadiz thank you so much!
