      @Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen The repaint looks stunning - both quality-wise as well as for the message of it! Very well done!
      Something that comes to mind that may interest you: Waldorf dolls (also called Steiner dolls) are a big thing here. It is not a make, it is a concept. Waldorf dolls have to be self-made (by now you can buy them, but those are also hand-made, so normally very expensive) and have no recognizeable expression: the idea is that the child playing should be able to project his/her feelings onto the doll. I used to make them in dolls-house size.

        Hi everyone,
        I am trying to fine-tune everything in my two sketches (underwater lake scene and lady feeding squirrels) before I attempt to colour it. Seems like never ending job, getting these two sketches right...

          @lmrush Hello Lisa - I've taken up quite a bit of bandwidth with my Oz pieces but this seems like a cool thread so i hope no-one minds yet another Oz post - My current project is illustrating the Wonderful Wizard of Oz with my portrait style illustrations - still enjoying it for sure - hopefully put it together as an under $3 kindle edition of the book this summer - that is the goal anyways - still enjoying it as i said but i am starting to think of next projects - maybe with another one year timeline for completion - anyways here is the group photo so far( the last 7 pieces are not finished)

            @Kevin-Longueil Amazing work! All really accomplished pieces, and it's great that you're taking this project to a finish. I think it will make a great edition of the book 🙂 ...I do have my favourites - Scarecrow, Mouse Queen, the silver shoes, fantastic bears, Good Witch of the North, Emerald City gates - love this one, it reminds me of great art pieces from the sci-fi books in my parents' collection (that I used to browse as a child) ...really nice.

              @Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen cool project- I agree it is good to step away sometimes and be creative in other ways

                      @Dulcie Wow! I love these! The plants and the texture on the street really gets my attention! And I really like their clothes. I'm no good at fashion myself, so all my characters usually just end up with a boring long sleeved shirt and jeans. You gave me something to think about 🙂

                        @Hana-Hladikova I really look forward to seeing these in color! Especially the underwater-scene. It's not super obvious to me that it's under water right now, but if you paint as good as you draw, I'm sure that one will turn out fantastic!

                          @Dulcie love the boy and the dog one! I think the colours work really well, and the ground 'wet' texture is awesome!

                                @Eric-Castleman beautiful! Love his skinny arms and your watercolour work!
                                One thing I'd suggest is to go in now with perhaps a pencil crayon and 'punch up' some of the lines - like the separation between his fingers, the strings on the violin, the shirt opening, etc.
                                Great work!

                                  @Embla Thanks so much! I've often struggled with clothing in the past, so if this passes the test that's great news 🙂

                                  @Sliproot Thanks very much for the kind words!

                                  @Eric-Castleman This looks great! Love the textures going on here. The work you are putting in definitely shows 🙂
