Featured Student for July

@ArtofAleksey that is a complicated question When I first moved to the United States I was in Idaho, but after finishing my bachelors degree my wife and I have moved multiple times for work and additional schooling. Currently we are in Lubbock Texas while I complete my PhD at Texas Tech in Media and Communication.

@chrisaakins I have to agree with @KathrynAdebayo, this is a really great piece!

[ArtofAleksey]

@AustinShurtliff oh nooo texas? (Only slightly kidding).
Are you settling in there?

[KajsaH]

@Heather-Boyd thank you! It's inspired by Zoe Persico's art she's amazing!

[chrisaakins]

@AustinShurtliff thank you! Still a long way to go, but I’m LOVING my SVS classes, the podcasts, blog-posts, and the forums...I’ve learned so much already!

[KajsaH]

@Heather-Boyd Yes! Do it!

[AustinShurtliff]

@ArtofAleksey its been pretty good. The people here are really nice, but I miss the mountains and green in Utah where we just lived. Luckily we are only planning to be here for two more years until I finish my PhD program.

[ArtofAleksey]

@AustinShurtliff yes this is only temporary after all, it’s good you got to see a bit more and got to think about where you wanna move to. What area of the state are you living in? A friend of mine is moving back there to be with his family

[Dima Eichhorn]

@Heather-Boyd So much magic here. Love it.

[AustinShurtliff]

@ArtofAleksey we are in the northern part near New Mexico. Its pretty far from any of the big cities in the State.

I take so long to make my illustrations! Haven't managed to do more than the contest illustrations... currently working on a faster process, but not sure I'm happy with the result, so won't share yet... So for now, here's what I've managed to finish are you all having the same problem or is it just me?!

@Heather-Boyd I love Zoe Persico's work sooo much. And that particular piece in one of my favorites as well!

@KajsaH You did a really good job! I love your composition and textures!

[aprilshin]

This forum is constantly pushing me to level up and to put myself out there, so here I am! I'm still trying to nail down a style, but I know that comes with time. Loving all the beautiful images I see on this forum every day!
