Hello All!
I’m new to SVS and happy to be here. Recently I had an unsuccessful portfolio review where I was told me my style was a little all over the shop. 🫣😬 As I was teaching myself Procreate and trying to get a happy balance between digital and traditional watercolour it was advice I took to heart.
I turned off my childrens’ portfolio tab on my website and I’m here to learn, grow and redo my children’s book portfolio.
After doing the Discovering Your Style course I did master copies of the illustrator Chihiro Iwasaki as I love the way she depicts children and the evocative use of soft edges and colour. As part of the assignment I redid an old work in traditional medium and brought it into Procreate to finesse it. It is a lot softer than the previous version but I feel like it’s more me.
Anyway, looking forward to working my way through the courses and if anyone feels like there were particular ones that really resonated or helped push you please share!
Sara
