@Will-Terry Thanks!! I actually altered it more, pushing the left side more to the back. Im not done yet of course with coloring, but I'm quite happy to close the day with this piece. But I don't want to flood this thread with my stuff, so i posted in my own thread if you're interested: WIP Treehouse on abandoned junkyard
Hey all. I've been MIA for long awhile. I'm on the brink of throwing in the towel on ALL things art. I canceled my Photoshop subscription. I moved my studio with the intention of just turning it into my 'office', I canceled my web domain and just have a free Wix site. I've spent the last 4 months searching for a 'real' job. Ya know 9-5 with benefits and PTO... but....I just keep being drawn back.
Well this assignment spoke to me. I set some limits on how much time I would put into it. 4 hours Max including sketch design. Limited color palette and simple media. This little piece is ink and water color then digitally enhanced.

@Katrina-Fowler Really nice to see you back! - your work is so good....you must not realize how good it is...or believe it when folks tell you - i still remember Lee saying some Extremely positive things about your work when you won the Third Thursday - it was something to the effect of "9 or 10 more images like this and i see a book deal" - i may not be remembering correctly - but i remember thinking Wow she is awesome and he is right - anyways..i hope i'm not making things worse somehow - This new piece looks great! Really nicely done!
Here is mine!!

@smceccarelli this came out really nice!
@Katrina-Fowler This is great! I'm a sucker for ink and watercolor. I really like the simplicity.
Kinda confused at your "throwing in the towel" comments, but then, I'm new here. Obviously fodder for a new thread. Perhaps you'd like to share?
@NoWayMe Nice job on the final! The dappled light looks much better.
@smceccarelli love it!
@MirkaH Really love this! When I was a kid I loved illustrations like this that you could look at a for a long time and see the different stories/scenes taking place.
@Katrina-Fowler its simply beatiful! and u ve done it in 4 hours... nice
These are looking REALLY good guys. I love the creativity you are bringing to the prompt. It's exactly what I had hoped for!
Keep 'em coming!
Cheers,
Lee
k, I'm going to go ahead and post these. It's more of a color comp at this point painted mostly with my finger on the laptop trackpad because I forgot my stylus. Not sure how much more time I'll have to mess with it. I did this on the plane which made my wife nervous. haha!
Total time around 1 hour in photoshop

@Lee-White Wow! One hour in photoshop sounds so nice It looks great.
@Katrina-Fowler I love this!
@smceccarelli This is beautiful! I love it, Simona!
@Lee-White That's so funny, This was totally the other concept I was thinking about trying. Looks great, stylus or not.
@Katrina-Fowler totally awesome!
Added this other color comp. I play around at this stage for a long time before moving on to a final. It's so much fun to mess around before going to final. I think this one works better than the pinkish one because the warm/cool separation is better.
