So it might just be that I'm surrounded all day long by little people that make all kinds of mischief, but this is what first came to mind for Old & New. After all, "Sharing is Caring"

Hello, everyone. I only recently discovered SVS and am excited about all the opportunities for learning and growth here! I feel like I have a very different vibe to my illustrations than a lot of you here, as I do very little digitally, but it seems like a welcoming group to many styles. Here is my entry for "Old and New."

Hello it has been only two months since I discovered SVS. I am on a sabatical year traveling and I have been taking many courses and loving it!!! I don’t have a computer with me so I have to make everything “the old way”.

In my proposal, the most valuable thing I could think of, is the connection between an old grandma and her new daughter. It reminds me of great moments that I had myself with my grandma.
I had lots of fun drawing and water coloring! Thanks a lot!

Here's my Old and New contribution, with my characters from last month's Octopus theme. This illustration had a lot of challenges but much thanks to the valuable feedback from @kevin-longueil @gary-wilkinson @jason-bowen @kathrynadebayo, it's one of my stronger efforts.

Hi here’s mine - I went a bit crazy with Procreate and I know it’s a bit too ercolourtastic ! However...

[Maureen]

@evilrobot That is an interesting concept with the skull heads but yet the flesh arms. Is this from a fairytale or ?

[Annebrierley]

Oops sorry resolution a bit low last time

[Maureen]

@artwithashley Funny! Had to chuckle.

[Kat]

The topic brought to mind how my dogs will destroy their old favorite toy and be totally excited to get a new one.

I have had this on the back burner for a while but since it is old and new I thought I would post it.

@stringfellowart Thank you thank you, but please don't let this intimidate you out of posting. That's the last thing I would want. SVS is a school where we strive to improve out skills there's enough work to go around out there. And the better our peers are, the better we become, but only if we are willing to put ourselves out there. There will always be artist out there who are better than us. but we can let that stop us, we have to use that as fuel for our drive. The biggest thing that separates the good from the great is effort. When it comes down to it, we are only up against ourselves. You only ever need to be better than you were yesterday, and then one day you will find that you are creating pieces you never imagined you could. So please create something for this.
