Holy moly! well I think it’s safe to say I was a little eager to start something new lol! Here’s my entry. I think I was feeling really inspired by my daughter with this one and it drove me to keep plugging away at it. I may end up reposting again if my file size needs adjusting well after some changes to my entry I can’t seem to find the clarity I had with the original. I’ve tried messing with different canvas sizes but the file size options my iPad allows don’t come close to the required size. Bummer oh well hope it’s clear enough for judges.

Think I’m done with entries, until my head is well again. Thanks svs I feel like I’ve really grown artistically since last November. This was a great and challenging prompt! Thanks @AustinShurtliff for being patient and working with me on the template process! Though I still haven’t got it down

Alrighty second entry!

I guess I didn’t do something right the template said nope not today asya

Edit: I think I got itFYI this was not an easy feat for those not computer savvy. Entered through the contest website.

Of course I had to delete and repost at least once for the contest lol. I added some fins to the back of my mer-yeti, hopefully they don’t turn against me!

You know me I had to delete and repost at least once! I decided to add a little more detail to break up the border a bit more.

It's not posted here yet, but on the critique arena website it has the new prompt for may. A full illustration of your traveler in a situation... check it out for the details, I imagine they will post it here soon.

Congrats Chris glad you got one under your belt finally!

@Moana-Maureen are you currently an active paying subscriber to svslearn? If not you’ll only be able the Facebook live event. If you are there must be an issue with your email somehow I imagine someone will get back to you in the morning sometime they usually check around before critique to tie up loose ends.

@Gary-Wilkinson I had thoughts about the mask as well. You could maybe do like an avocado mask LOL he could be eating a cucumber slice or they could be on the ground.

@Braden-Hallett that last bit had me crying

@Melissa-Bailey-0 thank you. She’s on her way to being a top illustrator by the time she 10 lol she’s only five right now but she’s so creative and such an artist! Better than I was at her age!

@AustinShurtliff thanks!

I think I’m gonna leave it like that. My daughter is the awesome by the way, totally her idea to have the pens in the hair! well first she suggested a pencil like he had drawn the picture, I was thinking it was just a photo or a poster but she was thinking that he drew it so I made markers and stuck a few of them in there.

I thought it was really great, love the lettering and how your art is the first thing you see. I think it’s all very consistent but the interest for me kind of drops off after the spider mag illustration. In my opinion a few of them don’t really show any sort of storytelling to me they’re just good drawings. If you do have any sequential illos throw them in there! Otherwise we’ll done!
