MARCH ILLUSTRATION CONTEST: OLD AND NEW
-
Here is my entry for the "Old and New" Prompt this month. This particular picture adorns the last page of my sketchbook. Every month, as I near the end of my current sketch book and look to the next one, I realize that the old book has so much wisdom and stories within it, while the new one is a blank slate, ready to face what will come next. It's fitting that this is the last image in this book, as it will be retiring to the sketchbook shelf very soon.
Enjoy!
It was recently my Grandmother's birthday (I call her GP) and so I'm dedicating this to her. She always likes to dress up as a witch for halloween. When I was little she would try and frighten me with her costume, but no matter how scary she was, I was never afraid of her. I think she will get a kick out of this particular picture.

@maureen Hey. Thanks for the nice words. Glad you like them. I use an ipad pro and procreate. I feel my workflow still needs improvement as I spend a lot of time with one image.

It's just one illustration but I feel like I leveled up this month working on this and from it came an idea for a picture book that I hope to expound on about this young frog discovering books and being transported into adventures with his dad. I plan on sinking myself into the illustrating and writing classes to make that project happen. I'm so thankful for the courses here at SVS and the kind people who took time to offer advice as I worked.

03/2018 OLD & NEW. I imagine a lot of people tomorrow morning will be rushing to get to church! This is my entry "Last minute alterations before church." -iPad with procreate.
I scratched an earlier idea with an old dog on a motorized stair lift. I'm glad I changed it LOL. Good Luck all, and Happy Easter-TA -

Ink and watercolor on paper. When thinking about old and new, I immediately thought of age, but decided to express the theme on multiple levels. Thanks, SVS, for the fun prompt!

@chip-valecek Thanks, Chip but, for some reason the last images were just tiny little squares on my computer. I saw the first ones fine.
