Love this thread! Personally, I'm working in some style exploration projects. Most recently (for children's illustration) are these:
-
Daily shapes
-
@MichaelaH I am loving these. You show so much personality in these characters you are doing from the shapes. They are so imaginative and appealing.
-
@demotlj Thank You so much, I have to say, it is hard for me, not drawing the characters, but to fit them somehow...yo great exercise
-
One "Finish"
One Sketch I didn't think would work as a finish but was fun:
There was some composition issues among other things and the goal is to make a series, but this one skews on a tangent. Still fun though. -
After a long bathroom remodel I was able to take a few days to relax in the pool and of course doodle. Here is a little self portrait of myself.
-
continue exploring to develop my style of image making. Trying out hard edges, almost no lighting, and lots of textures, and a bit of patterns.

Daily shapes

@Erin-Cortese Hi Erin, These look like so much fun! Where did you find the shape challenges?
-
We took a road trip to Yellowstone and one of my friends was kind enough to watch our house (and my guinea pigs) while we were gone. So I painted this illustration of her 3 cats as a thank-you gift. I can't just paint plain pet portraits I guess! This was also my first time trying out gouache paint and colored pencils.

@carriecopadraws Looks beautiful, great work

@Kristin-Dudish It’s from an app called Discord For The Arts. A little while ago @Braden-Hallett organized a thread on this forum for SVS members who wanted to work through the Creative Environment course together, and he suggested the app as a way to share work and communicate. The class is done, but SVS members still use the app to share work. You have to be sent an invite to join, but I have tagged @Braden-Hallett, he may be able to help.

@MichaelaH I love these, you find such creative solutions to the shapes! The pigs are my favourite.
-
@Kristin-Dudish Here's an invite the discord
You'll need to install the program, then answer some questions in 'the pond' (it's to keep bots n such out I think)
Feel free to send me a PM if you need any help.

Thanks for replying @Erin-Cortese and @Braden-Hallett !
I finally decided to try out the forums and I'm really glad I did - it seems like such a friendly & helpful place...
I appreciate the invite & can't wait to check it out. Thanks again!

@Erin-Cortese Thank you!

@Braden-Hallett the movement in that creature is stellar.
-
@jakecrowe Thanks super easy to make a runny animal when it's got so many leggy bits.

@Braden-Hallett This look like bugs that I would occasionally see in my dorm room at grad school. Uggh! (Ughh to the bug, not your drawing!)
