          Hi, everyone! Hereโ€™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 ๐Ÿ˜… I decided to go with The Paper Bag Princess at the last minute instead.
          I especially like this book because of itโ€™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. ๐Ÿ˜Š i hope also like it. Thanks!

            @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. ๐Ÿ™‚

              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. Iโ€™ll have to remember this for next time.

                      @JennyJones I like your cover for March. Is that the one that came out faded? If so, you should resubmit it before Chip does his photo album. Nothing's worse than spending hours/days on something and not having it look the way it should in the end due to a technical glitch.

                          @Johanna-Kim Yes thatโ€™s the one. Iโ€™ll try the resubmit. Thanks for the compliment too!

                          Update: it looks like what really happened with the โ€œ dull โ€œ look is that I left a Layer turned on that I should not have. The rest of the color looks pretty right on. I would be submitting an edited illustration if I resubmitted, so I will leave it ( and pay better attention next time. ). Thank you anyway.

                                  @Sas Thank you. Yes, I used gouache and prismacolor pencils and then I edited a lot in photoshop.

                                        @ShannonB much appreciated. Thanks for the feedback. I hadn't read it for years. It's been great to go back, take another look at 1984 and re-awaken the story.

                                            When do they usually announce the results for the monthly prompts? Or have I missed it somehow ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
