MARCH ILLUSTRATION CONTEST: OLD AND NEW

[MOO]

@jason-bowen I love this. Only one thing that kind of bothers me is the man between the book lady and the big guy is in need of some more contrast around the head . It is hard to discern without looking very close. It almost looks like his head is gone or very tiny. Or maybe it's a lady! Now I see the tall hair and the noustache (ha! ). Maybe a little sliver of lighness around the toddler's head too. I like how the book reader really stands out My older eyes might be part of the problem though. When I clicked on the pic to look at it larger the head was more
defined but I still think it needs a little bit of contrast against the light backing.

@naters-calderone I love this so much, I have no desire to enter this month because who can top this one. Cracks me up every time I look at it.

new book for an old man...

hello everyone
I read in this forum for some time - now it was finally time to join!

This is an older idea of mine which I revised completely and finished with a new style (pencil an digital coloring - never done something like this before). So I thought it fits the contest in the double sense

So it might just be that I'm surrounded all day long by little people that make all kinds of mischief, but this is what first came to mind for Old & New. After all, "Sharing is Caring"

Hello, everyone. I only recently discovered SVS and am excited about all the opportunities for learning and growth here! I feel like I have a very different vibe to my illustrations than a lot of you here, as I do very little digitally, but it seems like a welcoming group to many styles. Here is my entry for "Old and New."

Hello it has been only two months since I discovered SVS. I am on a sabatical year traveling and I have been taking many courses and loving it!!! I don’t have a computer with me so I have to make everything “the old way”.

In my proposal, the most valuable thing I could think of, is the connection between an old grandma and her new daughter. It reminds me of great moments that I had myself with my grandma.
I had lots of fun drawing and water coloring! Thanks a lot!
