I happened to be working on a night time piece before even knowing the theme! It was fun to practice hand lettering!

(Edit: Almost blew it, left my jewelry and pink layer off. Need to double check things, I was so excited.)

Went for a full spread this time.

So many amazing entries.. With each contest everyone just gets better and better.

Hello, I'm new to the forum. This is my first post and submission to the monthly contest. This is my entry- Mission Objective: Save Squizzard. by Paul Terpstra @paul_gt4.09.23

This is an idea from the midpoint of a comic ill work on one day. The idea is these characters have previously escaped. But now must return to save their friend before its too late. I haven't painted a night time scene before so was excited for the challenge. Learnt that I defiantly need more practice at it. But very happy with what I've done.

I worked on this traditionally in watercolour. I dont have a scanner and getting a photo of this was a nightmare. Some of it is cut on the edges to fit.

Comments welcome. Have enjoyed seeing others entries and watching others process. I've been too busy to get involved on the forum. But I hope to get more into in soon.

This is my submission for the February Contest. The child is dreaming, and so is the moon. It was illustrated using watercolors and watercolor pencils.

Here is mine, a spread from a picture book I illustrated last year. I really wanted to make something new for this prompt but there were just not enough time this month but I hope you like this one and good luck everyone!

Intended for an exhibition but it works for this months contest too. Traditional mixed media.

Here is my entry. A good time to work out those Procreate muscles! I look forwards to one day being as comfortable with digital as I am with traditional.

Wow - so many fabulous pieces here...Here’s my Nightfall piece; thanks to those of you who gave me advice it was really appreciated and helped a lot. I first did this digitally but I really prefer working with traditional media so I re-did it.

So many great submissions this month, awesome job everyone!

[APHOTICMOTH]

@MirkaH This is so precious. Have you read "Love You Always - by Frances Stickley" ? I just returned it to the library. Your piece is right up there with that book. Great stuff.

What a journey it was... I have put so many hours into this and it is not nearly where I want it to be. There's just no more time at hands, so here it is.

I miss the camping trips way back when. This was made with a gutter and text in mind. Enjoyed doing this one!
