Potentially silly question: is the prompt just "Nightfall" or "Nightfall came and I Fell Asleep?" I'm guessing the latter is just something that happened to you, but wanted to check...

@Braxton Hi! It's just "Nightfall." Lee likes to keep his prompts short and sweet

Chip Valecek

@Braxton yeah I was just trying to make a funny cause Lee beat me to posting it on the forums.

Braxton

@Chip-Valecek that’s what I figured!

I just about finished the previous one and then iIrealized it was February. I really hope to submit to this one. I think i can come up with something good and possibly snail related.

@CalebLaughlin, good question. My understanding is only 1 piece; however, feel free to create a WIP thread and post multiple pieces and ask for feedback.

Hello!
Like real night owl, I'm posting this in 2:00 a.m. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:
This illustration is for my own project for a childrens book aaaand I've finished it 3 days ago, and then came out the february contest theme - the perfect one to enter with this piece! :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:
The text, that comes with this spread is:

***Exhausted by the long road, they moved slowly in the dark forest

What do we do now? We are completely lost ... - cryed the Queen
We must continue! I'll find a ford!
The King reached out to the Queen and hand in hand they’ve continued ahead. The Queen raised her lantern to light the way.
Do you hear that?
More and more, a gentle chant began to rise. Lights in sparkling blue lured them as if in a trance. A light flied around them and enticed them to follow it into the swamp. Sparks reappeared in their eyes, and their footsteps became more nimble and secure. They had a purpose again.***

I must say, that the courses from SVS helped me so much with my work! Special thanks to Will Terry, who I see as the real mentor, that I've missed in the Arts Academy!
