      @JDRpictures Wow, I love the dreamlike quality of your illustration and the split of the dark/light with the ivory tower in the middle! It came out awesome! πŸ™‚

            1984 by George Orwell. Been reading this book over the last couple of weeks. A life changing book when I read it as a teenager and still just as relevant today. Would love to make a graphic novel of 1984 set in an alternate dimension.

                  Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl My favorite book by the author, adapted into a great film as well. The book is about a Fox who justifies theft to feed his family, which are forced to stay hidden underground by the villains. 092-5.5x8.5-Standing-Paperback-Book-Mockup-COVERVAULT.jpg Fantastic_Mr._Fox_SVS.jpg

                        Here is my entry for this month. I decided to go with an old favorite.

                        Also...please indulge my sweet 5 year old as I upload her entry for this month too. She saw me working and wanted to enter an illustration of her own story. It’s the story of a magical bedroom where when the big chandelier turns off the animals become real and the room becomes a forest. The title had about 100 words and I am not able to remember it. Annie Jones age 5.

                                  Hi, everyone! Here’s my entry for this month.
                                  You might have seen my The Little Prince wip earlier this month but I set that project aside because it was too complex. It had too much metaphors and i was hitting a road block. I imagine I could make it work in time but time is not on my side lately πŸ˜… I decided to go with The Paper Bag Princess at the last minute instead.
                                  I especially like this book because of it’s brave and clever protagonist. This is just a simple piece. I finished it in a few hours and its concept is fairly simple as well. However, I like how it turned out. Though plain, i think I can still add it to my portfolio. 😊 i hope also like it. Thanks!

                                  2441E27A-A456-4237-AFB8-616435D3FC51.jpeg

                                    @JennyJones I love her story concept - I think it would be fun for you with her permission to create a scene from very imaginative story. πŸ™‚

                                      Thanks for letting me resubmit my file in RGB mode, Chip.

                                      Tip: If you submit your JPG in CMYK mode, your image will end up with faded color. It was driving me nuts last night.

                                            @Johanna-Kim I submitted my jpeg in the same format as you did. I have been lamenting about how it looked dull as compared to the way I created it but could not figure out why. I’ll have to remember this for next time.
