My first digital illustration. Critiques invited!

@christine-garner Thank you.

@jennyjones Perspective IS really painful! If you're doing it all digitally, one thing that can help is setting up a perspective grid to use as a guide. I like to do my sketching first to get the basic layout and composition, then lay down a grid and tweak things around a bit to fix the perspective.

@robgale I use Procreate and I know there is an assist option. I just couldn't find it. I need to make use of the tools for sure. Next time...

Ok so I took all the advice and added a few things from my own critiques and reworked the illustration. I like it SO much better. Took a while. You will never know how many re-draws of the mom cat and middle cat were done! Whew!!
-
So cute! It reminds me of a little golden book we had about The Three Little Kittens
I don't do digital yet so I can't say anymore -
Beautiful! I love it.
The littlest kitty's feet are a nice touch. -
@jennyjones WOW this looks fantastic!!

@marsha-kay-ottum-owen Thank you. I loved that book when I was little. I will have to go back and look to see if I was unconsciously influenced. One of my current loves are the illustrations of Anita Jeram. She makes the sweetest little animals!

@tessaw Thanks! I am learning a lot reworking things. I went back to a couple of spots I did a few weeks ago and touched them up too. I know Jake's words "finished, not perfect" and that I have to let them go and move forward. But these were not finished for too long...

@eli Thank you. You guys are so encouraging. I am feeling empowered to keep it up.
