Hi everyone, here is my entry for the June contest: A very different kind of prompt!
Starting with a set story plot and defined characters was very exciting and challenging in a positive way, had to do some research about where do monkeys and alligators coexist, and decided to go with the Nile River Baboon and Alligator for Bongo and Clyde.
I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!
Praise God!!!

Hi everyone!
This is my first time posting here in SVS Forum, there's a lot of amazing artist here.
I've wanted to enter in one of the art contest for a long time now, just haven't had the time to actually participate in any SVS art contest, i feel that the Slowvember challenge works perfectly for my current situation, currently looking for work an trying to provide for my family.
SVS courses are very cool and i found the courses to be very well done, learned allot about how to do Children books art and character and story development. all on which i am very interested in.
This illustration is called:

Good luck everyone!
Zed realizing his dream of complete Isolation, memories of tragic past long gone, Happily recording his exploration on the Red Planet!
Character story link
https://forum.svslearn.com/topic/9461/character-story-for-may-isolation
Name:
No.26 before adopted
Renamed "Zed" British for the letter Z
"Z" the twenty-sixth letter of the alphabet
Born Location:
Liberia's Monkey Island
Primary Mission:
To test out the latest space technology and find out if Mars is suitable for human life
Parents:
- Father:
Alpha Chimpanzee
Died at the laboratory
- Mother:
Was one of many chimps used for experiments in a lab, later abandoned to die on an island called "Liberia's monkey island"
she received an injection of an unknown chemical while being pregnant with Zed
She died a month after giving birth, to an unknown illness
Background:
Zed became an orphan at a very young age left to defend for himself, the lac of food and absence of his mother helped develop high intellectual skills rare for the primate species
Life in Monkey Island was very harsh, lacking both potable water and good food sources, chimps that lived there rely solely on human caregivers to bring food to the island
chaotic surroundings and bullied by bigger chimps, life for a small orphan chimp was not easy
longing for isolation and a place to be free to explore other horizons, Zed began to explore the island to find a way out, developing tools to catch fish to eat and shelter to hide from bullies.
Zed special qualities did not go unnoticed a Neuroscientist named Robert, observing the Chimps saw Zed using one of his tools to catch a fish, Robert grew very fond of Zen and adopted him
One day Robert went to work, to meet one of his good friends who was undergoing a candidacy training program at the Johnson Space Center in Houston,
taking Zed with him, Robert didn't go anywhere without Zed
Zed showed a lot of interest in all the training equipment, Robert was very good friends with the head of the training program who grew fond of Zed
allowing Zed to participate in the candidacy training program apart of the human candidates just for fun, astonish by Zed training results, what started as fun and games
Zed stats were outperforming allot of the human candidates.
The Head of the training program showed his supervisors the results of Zed performance, baffled, decided to examine Zed further
Zed exceeded expectations
Thrilled by the possibility to save billions of dollars, the administrator of the space program decided to send Zed to trailblaze a secret mission to find out if Mars is suitable for human life.

Hi, Everyone!
My name is Frank Sandoval
I worked for a Mobile Game company for 9 years, but because of contract agreements, I can't show any game art that I worked on for that company.
I don't work there anymore.
I am interested in doing illustrations for Children's Books and Children's Graphic Novels.
Had to create new art and portfolio to show children's book illustrations
I was so happy to find a place like SVSLearn.com with @Jake-Parker, @Lee-White and @Will-Terry to learn more about how to make children's books, also Joined the SVSLearn forum, a very cool place to meet and talk to other artists.
This is the first time I post a New Topic, I really need an artist point of view.
I recently recovered from Covid-19 and very thankful to God that my family and I are healthy now.
I've been working in a very Stressful long hour none art-related Job, would be great to be able to work on children's books full time :).
I would really appreciate any kind of advice, or contact info, I don't know what to do next, who to show my work to.
Thank you!
May God bless you and your family!
Here is my portfolio in case you are interested
