@ruth I love your illustration. The props are my favorite.

@Chris-Philpot This is such an original and unique way to interpret the prompt. It cracls me up a bit.

Coley · 1 Oct 2020, 19:29

@miranda-hoover thanks so much. Yours is absolutely wonderful , as always ️

Coley · 1 Oct 2020, 19:31

@Laurasketches such a pretty fairy! This has a bit of a Loish feel to me! I could see her doing something like this. Cool work!

Chris Philpot · 1 Oct 2020, 21:24

@Jessica-Jolicoeur Thanks so much! I tried to come up with 10 distinct concepts (not versions of the same concept) this month and was able to get much weirder ideas on paper.

@Laurasketches This is beautiful! I love her. Was this digital?

@Annabishop Thank you

@Gabby-Correia Love how inky black your fairy is.

@kimmypie Thank you!
I really like your squid ink fairy, and just love Ellie's expression and her victory dance

@dafoota thank you!

Laurasketches · 5 Oct 2020, 04:53

@K-Flagg Thank you so much--yes, she is in digital ink. And @Coley Thank you, too! I've been looking at Loish quite a lot lately, as I've recently purchased her book... so, I suppose her influence has shown up in my work.

@Sara-Nilsson I don’t understand why yours wasn’t chosen. I wish they would explain why some really good ones don’t get chosen. I love yours.

@Krista-Blue , I like how the wings are folded paper.

Miriam · 8 Oct 2020, 22:22

@Chris-Philpot , I almost missed that we are looking through the camera. It would have been nice to have some more icons from the screen/viewfinder to help out with that. But I love the drawing and concept!

Chris Philpot · 8 Oct 2020, 22:28

@Miriam Thanks! Yeah, I probably could have reinforced the viewfinder with more icons. Good idea! I learned a lot this month.

@miranda-hoover This was my favorite entry this month. So glad it won. Congrats!
