MARCH CONTEST: Fairy-Tale Traveler

Kimberly Nissinen

@Asyas_illos I hope so! SVS makes Thursdays such a happy day!

@Kimberly-Nissinen I agree whether or not you make it in it is such a joy and privilege to hear their thoughts and perspectives

KristyM

@Asyas_illos thank you, that’s good to know

Fay

@JasperS thank you! Seems like Ham’s cuteness is shining through!

Fay

@CLCanadyArts Ham is delighted to hear he’s a fav!

@KristyM Lee didn't say, but I bet they would only choose one per person, no matter how many they enter. I was surprised because the email announcing March's contest specifically said only one entry per person...the email for the April prompt will doubtlessly spell out the change.

@marek-halko This is so great! I wonder if they'd consider doing a monthly contest brief to create a gif, that would be cool!

@Annabishop thanks! It was fun to try some animation. Gif contest would definitely be a cool experiment! I am in.

@Larue Thank you! I thought about making the hair black, but the red hair just looked better when I was testing different colors.

@Jake-Parker I'm not sure where to put this, but at the critique arena you were asking for thoughts about making the critique arena better. For myself, I know I'm at the start of my art journey with a lot to learn. I love having these challenges that make me stretch and illustrate something I might not have tried on my own. My question, or suggestion, perhaps, is that this feels like the only place to 'win a chance' for some instructor feedback. The forums are fantastic for help from fellow learners, but having another place for feedback from an instructor, like you'd find in a university or college type setting where a little more direction and support is given, would be invaluable. Not sure if that's really workable, but I thought I'd share just in case. Thanks for the fantastic work you guys at SVSLearn have done, I really love learning here!
