      Really pleased with how this turned out. With everyone’s help on the forum it’s a landmark piece for me. Definitely plenty to improve in my skills of execution abilities.

      How do you tell when something in your current execution abilities is a strength that you want to lean into and keep in your developing style vs something that would be better to avoid and work to overcome?

              She took her flamingo to dance school to learn to dance the flamenco.

                  Here's my first ever entry. I know I could keep tweaking it, but I'm calling it done. I learned so much, mostly that I have a lot more to learn. Anyway, she showed up with Mr. Prickles the cactus cat!

                      I went through a lot of ideas for this prompt, and nothing felt right til I focused in on the word ‘shocked’ and started researching lightning folklore. I asked, “what if a little girl literally brought lightning to school?” So, I found the tale of the Kadlu, and fell in love. According to Inuit folklore, Kweetoo, Ignirtoq, and Kadlu are the three little sister goddesses of lightning, rain, and thunder. Kweetoo makes lightning by hitting flint stones together, and I was thinking how fun would it be to show the moment when Kweetoo goes to school and shows her sisters that she can create lightning.

                      You can check out my full process (this one was a doozy!) on the forums here.

                      Love seeing everyone's work! Good luck all!

                          @Dima-Eichhorn Thank you 🙂 Your entry is gorgeous. I love your sense of color and the way you direct the viewer's eye to the focal point. I can easily see this as part of a picture book.

                            @Laurel-Aylesworth Thank you for the kind words. I was really struggling with the colours ( as always) and I also love the face expression of the boy in the middle from your illustration.

                                            Hi fellow SVSer's! Here is my first submission for an SVS Prompt. I had a lot of fun with this one - Thanks Will!

                                            This style is new to me so I have a few of questions for anyone who cares to critique 🤘

                                            • It's my intention to maintain the look of traditional media in my digital artwork. Are there any "dead giveaways" that this is digital artwork?

                                            • Any pulls, pinches, tweaks, or twists that would make this piece portfolio ready?

                                            • After viewing the art, do you have a specific SVS class in mind that I could benefit from?

                                            SeptemberPromptFinale.JPG
                                            Thanks for looking!
