@jdubz I feel like that is starting to happen for me too, slowly but it’s a good feeling

[Heather Boyd]

@jdubz really like it. I just watched the end of Brave with the wisps. Yours is soft and wispy and has a nice balance with the more rugged texture of the tree.

[jdubz]

@Heather-Boyd Thanks! That was the first thing that came to mind when I was thinking "man, I want to do something with spring in it" so it definitely was the underlying idea

So I started doing color studies more and i dont know how but it lead to this
I think im gonna make a portfolio of this kind of work.

April has been a lot of forcing myself to be productive. I've been working on more studies and want to push the story telling in my images. I'm just not getting it yet... which has been incredibly frustrating. This was me telling myself to relax and keep practicing. It will get better if I just keep drawing.

@ArtofAleksey oooo. I really am digging the new style. Looks so cool!

[ArtofAleksey]

Heres another!

I think like everyone right now, I'm happy to get any extra work I can, and was able to make this card for a co-worker.

I think I'm skipping ahead to Fall a bit early lol. But in trying to be way more intentional with color I picked a really narrow palette and this kinda just popped in my head when I was thinking of these colors.

I ended up doing a quick sketch along with a color thumb which I normally don't do. It seemed to really help me not go off the rails on the last one and it seems like that's keeping me in check.

I didn't do any changes to the newer brushes on this one so I think I got them tweaked to where they feel really good.

I've but putting together a series that came about during my March of Robots endeavor. Meet Edgar and Bunny. Hoping to eventually write a story for these two!

I haven't drawn in pencil to make a "finished" drawing in forever. I'm still having issues with proportion and anatomy and fabric wrinkles and hands and feet (yikes!), but that's what practice is for! At this moment in time, this is the best I can do. Hopefully a few months from now I'll be super embarrassed by this drawing. Thank you for taking a look.

@azupcsan this is a very cute image!

[chrisaakins]

This is a first for me. I did a study digitally for a painting I am about to do traditionally. Very happy with this process.

[Coley]

My cooped up artwork for the scbwi prompt this month. I am finally figuring out how to use clipping mask and to a small extent, layer masks. I made the textures with various brushes in clipping masks and selections but I'm trying to figure out how to incorporate other textures ( and remember how to do it LoL because I forget between projects). This was different for me but I really like it! It's nice when one actually likes their artwork LoL

[chrisaakins]

I finished the painting! Woo!

[burvantill]

@chrisaakins I do this too! It’s VERY helpful.

[burvantill]

@chrisaakins Nice

[aprilshin]

@jdubz Holy crap I am absolutely loving your cloud detail! Wow!

[Heather Boyd]

@Coley Yah! To you.

I really like this especially the cleanness of the bottom third!

[aprilshin]

I made a rock rhino! Had a lot of fun making this one and learned a lot!
