Pls Help Me Choose 3 Pieces for SCBWI Portfolio Showcase
-
Hi, everyone! So, I'm joining the SCBWI Portfolio showcase but can't decide on which 3 illustrations I should choose. A link to my portfolio is down below. Please let me know which pieces I should include. Currently, I'm thinking of the Mermaid, and the kids building the Penguin Snowman but what do you think? I look forward hearing your thoughts. Thank you!!!

Definitely Santa's sleigh and the mermaid one but I seriously can't choose what the third should be. The snow penguin is cute but the kids in the barn with the light coming through boards is a nice way to show off how you can use lighting. But I also love the bunnies in space!

Your Halloween ones are all so good too!

@Nyrryl-Cadiz These three for me
-
I think these 3 are my favorite too but it's really hard to choose! I love that Halloween animal one too and the playground castle. Argh I love all of them!
-
@Nyrryl-Cadiz I think the Santa image and the Halloween animal image should both be on there. For the third one, I am between the mermaid and the playground ones.
The playground image looks a bit different from the other two images (maybe because of the way you use colors?) so I think it can add versatility to your portfolio. On the other hand, if you prefer consistency, I think the mermaid image will be better. Both are gorgeous so it’s a tough choice.
-
@Nyrryl-Cadiz I like the three Kevin chose, and I also like "Raaaar!" just for its nice graphic qualities and clear value structure. Also it's a different kind of scene with the figures closer up, if you want that kind of variety.
-
@Nyrryl-Cadiz I love Santa, Halloween as well. The third one is hard, so many good pieces here. Mermaid is beautiful, so do Bears in the river, kids play on the tree.
-
Santa’s sleigh, the three bears, and the chicks hatching in the barn. They pull me in and create a feeling that I’m right there. I can actually feel the winter air, the spring day, and the setting sun.
-
It is hard to choose because your portfolio is so nice. I like the Santa one and the bears playing in the water, and the playground one.
-
I think Santa, the underwater scene, and the bears camping caught my eye really well. Made me go woahhhhh ahhhh woooo ohhh
-
@Nyrryl-Cadiz I think Santa's sleigh, the underwater one with the submarine, and the bears are all really good candidates!
-
@Nyrryl-Cadiz Your website is such a wonderful pop of color!
My faves are santa, mermaid and the bears!
-
You have so many great pieces in your portfolio. The three you've chosen are excellent, but all these pieces feature a ton of characters at about the same size. Perhaps switch one of these out for the bath scene or the Halloween scene, both of which have one really distinctive large shape that captures the viewer's attention from a distance?

I like Santa, Mermaids and Bears!
