APRIL CONTEST: Lisa's robot invention worked great, until it did this...

[kittytreets]

@carlianne Okay, great. Thanks! ;o)

[Laurel Goetz Donkervoet]

This is a gardening robot, created to trim bushes, but instead trims the dog!

I'm a day late, but I finished this a while back...I used watercolor and a little Prisma Colored pencil.

[kittytreets]

@Laurel-Goetz-Donkervoet This is really sweet. I just got prismacolor pencils and I am seriously impressed!

@kittytreets Thank you so much!

[Heather Boyd]

@johnchoi I am interested to know also this french style look.

[drawnbyshawn]

@Heather-Boyd Thanks! It needed a few passes to get all of the detail I wanted in.

@marek-halko I just love this image! I particularly love the expression on the little girls face and just her whole affronted body language, you nailed it! The robot is so cute too. Awesome!

[Lorna H]

@carlianne I love the fantastic use of colour and the beautiful rain bouncing around in your image. The robot looks so deliriously happy, love it!

[carlianne]

@Lorna-H thanks so much Lorna! ️️️

@carlianne @Heather-Boyd These are from a children’s book series as told by Grandma Chicken (Mamie Poule) - I guess kinda like Mother Goose. Quick google search of the illustrator: https://www.gautier-languereau.fr/auteur/herve-le-goff

My wife (from Paris) didn’t grow up with these stories - I think they’re quite recent.

[marek.halko]

@Lorna-H Many many thanks!

[carlianne]

@johnchoi so cute!! Thanks for sharing.

[Lorna H]

I had a moment of peace to look through all the entries for last month and they are so good! I just wanted to say @Coley I love this bot-horse, beautifully illustrated, as all your art is, but I also love how deliriously happy the horse is about the apple and how unaware he is of the fate of his rider Great image!

[Lorna H]

@artbytra - the colours on your painting are so beautiful, I couldn’t stop looking at all the gorgeous colours and details! I love how you manage to layer all your textures. Have you ever done a post on your process? I’d love to se how you go about constructing your image. Did you work solely digitally or use traditional mediums too when making this image? The colours are so vibrant. Awesome!
