JULY CONTEST: Albert needs a home!

@Janette I love the happy colors of this! I think you are right about the viewer's attention being drawn to the tree. Part of it, I think, is the orange against the blue color contrast. I know people have mixed feelings about grey (there may be a color mixing joke in there somewhere) but if the orange were toned down a bit or darkened, that might help...it would also make the glowy fairy lights stand out even more.
Did you get a chance to watch Critique Arena live? One of the top 16 had perspective like yours where it's almost flattened...if you didn't see it live, check out the recording. I know Lee said something nice about it.
I love your color choices and the spiral staircase up an spiral slide down. I see the red paper lantern...are there any other references to your character that would identify him?

@Iain-Davidson the colors on this one is just adorable

@RachelArmington I watched the live Critique. I do have a hard time making my colours more subdued. I love the contrast in the autumn of the orange leaves against the blue sky. But, you're right. It's hard to maybe see the house.

@Iain-Davidson You absolutely should. I was glad I was not on your rung of the competition for sure! you did a fantastic job! It's a stellar piece and so very interesting. Congratulations!

@mag You did a great job! Yours had so much character! I love your little pig. I hope you write a book with him. If you had been on the top half with me I am sure you would have blown mine out of the water. It had such good storytelling.
