decided to be on the ball and enter early! I'm a bit confused on what size the image should be though..........?I know there was a post a while back but I can't find it now.

Making myself a bit crazy with last minute changes so I am posting so I can go have a life lol!

@ruth , your characters are too freaking cute!

Bad ole horsie bot

I wanted to combine adding a portfolio piece that used one of my previous characters with the contest this month, so here is the return of my little mouse from the Nightfall contest in February. I started sketching this mouse character last September for the inktober prompt ring.
Have a great day everyone.

I polished an illustration I did last fall now that I understand photoshop a bit better ! Getting ready to have a website going

also was working on losing the linework a bit. I'm not very good at linework and I like working on edges so am learning to lean into that a little

Ok, done! This is actually early for me, haha. Usually I’m right up to the deadline lol.

my mousie in the wedding band

calling it done and moving on

Seems like lots of submissions! Awesome work everyone. It seemed like a slow start on entries earlier this month but everyone came..well.....”together” haha (sorry lol)

Mine is my romantic view and tribute to my husband and I (albeit a younger version of us!), as well as all couples who set out on the adventure of being together!

Art drop sounds fun. I wasn’t aware of it and I live in the boonies lol, so maybe a squirrel might find it haha. Have fun with yours.

I’m working on doing a sketch everyday I. September ( too many days I don’t actually draw). Upping my game at being regular about drawing.

Day 1

C is my fave, I feel kinda like I’m right in there!

They’re awesome. I think you definitely made them unique and appealing, just like the course name suggests! Belle is so cute! Great work

@Nyrryl-Cadiz omg that’s horrible! Maybe tag them on social media if no response? That will probably get their attention....meantime, do you want to be on the Instagram chat thread? I could add you if you want!

@Kevin-Longueil yes for sure!

I’m starting an Instagram chat for anyone who is registered for the winter conference and wants to chat during it, just chat about some of the talks etc, of course people could have a bigger, more open thread here on the forum if they want too. But if you want something a little smaller, send me a message here on the forum with your Instagram name or message me on Instagram. I’m nicoleledrewmayart I think. Lol. Or just Nicole LeDrewmay. You’ll find me!
@A-Former-User @Heather-Boyd @idid @LauraA @Lorna-H @Nyrryl-Cadiz @Nyrryl-Cadiz @seelliott @theprairiefox @VeronicaMui @xin-li you guys mentioned you might be doing it so if you are, let me know

Just seeing this. It looks like a very strong portfolio showcase to me!

@xin-li adding more diversity is definitely something I’m trying to work on, I have a few pieces but they are mostly spots. It’s in the cards for this year to bring into full illustrations . Thanks for that input

Thanks everyone! @erinrew @HeatherBouteneff @jdubz @NessIllustration @Nyrryl-Cadiz @Rekha-Salin @shereen-said
Much appreciated! 7 seems like a clear front runner haha, which is cool because I just did that this week and it’s my first illo in a while, I’ve been painting pet portraits for two months, so I wasn’t sure if people would find it appealing. Thanks so much! I’m thinking I’m going with the kids and the tree and the polar bear, really wanting one of my mice in there, so I’m still figuring it out, I’ll be down to the wire deciding I guess lol. Thanks so much for the input, it was very helpful!

@NessIllustration I knew you would go for the mouse and the polar bear thanks!

@xin-li number 4 is epic!
