Really nice piece! Great work,Kevin!!
-
@Thrace thank you Thrace - just sent in my Drawing - good luck to you and everyone!
-
@Kevin-Longueil Wow!!! This is phenomenal. I am always amazed by your drawing skills Kevin. I really think that if you start illustrating YA novels especially, you'll start winning awards. Beautiful work.

A-maz-ing!! I really like the openness of the interpretation, could be landing in a new place with the boat going out, or could be going to the shore for the incoming ship...either way, new adventure awaits! Wonderful job Kevin! good luck!
-
@Kevin-Longueil Wow. Just wow. This is awesome!
I'm calling it now: this will be one of the tippy-top ones.
-
Yep, that's pretty awesome!
-
Thank you all so much! It's so hard to see past the flaws sometimes (especially at 1:30 in the morning) so waking up to your support was so great!! -
@natiwata - Thank you again for the huge compliment and support - i often wonder where drawings like mine would live - i really do love children's books and thats what brought me here but what i naturally come up with and enjoy drawing are kind of dark images that do not seem to fit in - i think YA is where i should start picturing my work - thank you!
@Lynn-Larson Thank you Lynn! - I like the openness of interpretation too - are they arriving or are they departing and who is really leading whom (i think that is correct usage of "whom") ?
@mattramsey Thank you!!- i would love to be one of the Tippy-tops Matt! Would love to get a critique one of these thursdays
@jacs Thank you Jacqueline! -
@Kevin-Longueil I agree with all the other comments - this really is a superlative piece, I love the drawing - you always have drawn trees so beautifully and this time you've woven them into a fantastic composition which describes the text perfectly. It makes me want to read more of the story and find out where the man will be led to next. Great job!
I also agree with @natiwata's comment about this style being suited to YA illustration in particular...
