White silhouettes really seem to work out for sketches for me. it's so fast!

@braydin-hawlette These are great! I love the white figures on that gray background

Some concepting for rabbit road race:

And a fast sketch with leftover paint on my brush from other paintings... I can't stand the thought of wasting paint so I typically make these fast sketches while I create other more finished work:

And this guy popped up in my brain from I don't know where

rediscovering long lost process.

@Asyas_illos I love this Asya! The way you treated the clouds to add some white space near the edges is really nice!

Hello everyone, happy July!

I have been slowly moving myself towards setting up commission work - so many details to work through.

I have certainly found simplifying likeness to be a 'tricky bugger' lols. I started with a simple self portrait and then I moved to a likeness of my mother. This is the result:

Thank you,

Heather

@mcschweitzer It's neat you're creating something that will have a special meaning for your daughters! And I like that you're doing it with traditional mediums! Keep up the nice work!

@Asyas_illos Thanks for sharing your progress with us! Is this for a banner or children's book? I like how it's encouraging children to read.

@Coreyartus Exciting project! This is big--and I'm guessing it's been time-consuming! Way to go on dedication. At least one of my favorites, if not my favorite is the fall one.

The leaves on the surface of the water are neat. Are these nature scenes inspired by places near you?

[Asyas_illos]

@MelissaJacie yes it’s a banner/masthead entry for my regional SCBWI.
