SCBWI prompt yellow

@AngelinaKizz I love the colors and lighting. Very beautiful. I don’t have much to add, but her face looks like she is scared and not having fun at all. I would also darken the figures (maybe not as dark as I did) and add a bit of shadows. I did a quick draw over. Hopefully that is okay. I changed her expression so she is laughing and closing an eye to show she doesn’t want it in her eye, but she is enjoying herself. I would also make her hand more noticeable; I tried to do it, but not very well. I love the idea you came up with. Such a fun thing to do as a kid.

@Kim-Rosenlof ooooooh! I love the one eye closed! And darker shadows! Going to make adjustments now! We have this field behind our house that the dandelions cover the entire field, and my kids absolutely go bonkers with joy running through and making wishes, and it just makes my heart so happy to watch them play in the field!

@AngelinaKizz I think it’s an improvement! The way you’ve not only darkened the characters, but also made them more purple, really makes them stand out. Well done
-
@AngelinaKizz It looks really good. I agree with @skeletortoise that adding the purple really works well against the yellow.
One thing, but this can be ignored if you want to, I do like the darker yellow of the field, but it is looking more brown now. maybe keep more of the upper part of the field yellow like before and then gradually go darker as you go down. I am just not sure how strict they will be with the prompt “yellow”. -
@AngelinaKizz It’s hard to say what to do because I like how you have changed it so you can see the dandelions more now.

@Kim-Rosenlof I questioned the color too, but I stayed on the yellow portion of the color wheel so I think it would be safe to stay even though there's a stronger brown feel. I may play around a bit more, but if I lean too cool yellow in those values it's more of a muddy green.

Does anyone know where the draw this submission gallery gets posted? I’d love to peruse the other entries but I can’t find it. Thanks!

@AngelinaKizz I think this looks great! It’s at the point where any changes you make are just getting into more subjective things that can go either way
