doing this really my style, but still a lot of work before me

So I hope I am not late...

Cover for czech tale "Dlouhý, široký a bystrozraký" by Karel Jaromír Erben, it has also other names:
"Long, Broad and Sharpsight"
"Longshanks, Girth, and Keen: The Story of Three Wonderful Serving Men"
or it is similar to "The Six Servants" by Grimm

It is about three servants helping prince with his quests of finding his enchanted princess (enchanted as an oak nut, gemstone and ring). Long can make himself very long, Broad can go very wide, Sharpsight can destroy rocks without his eye cover or he can see everything through his eye cover.

Daily shapes

Yesterday I played with procreate(usually using only for sketching), I am always painting clean,with clean lines and everything in Photoshop, but not yesterday, this was very raw, sketchy and unclean drawing with colors and I liked it and had lot of fun doing it...it was difficult for me not to correct everything..because I never draw in such style...

New thing we are doing, two shapes and 1 stroke silhouette to work on.

So I changed the title of this post so that I can post here my process on all my next projects. I was inspirated by @animatosoor thank You for showing me, how great it is to work hard on my portfolio.

So my next project is this bear taking bath and talking to a fish. I don't have text, so there is this text place holder.
Why bear, I am trying to do some promts from this challange and day one was my favorite animal, I like to draw almost all animals, so I set on bear.

Daily shapes

Finished, water was difficult....
English is not my strength, so if the text needs some correction, I am open to any help.

I am still not finished, have to work on some project , but my colored illustration progress here:

@Will-Terry Thank You guys for the work you are doing for us. You are doing a lot for us and I understand it, you are artists, but also company and there are lot of thing you have to pay...so I find your idea awesome, to make the subscription more tempting with the new additional stuff.
PS. Please work on some real invoices (our and your adresses, ..invoice nr...) for the membership and interactive classes, we in Europe (Germany) really need it for the tax office, if we want to deduct it as our expanses for business.

Done...uff...only raw sketch

Still not finished, I want to draw one more little monster and the bus ppl, but now I am too sleepy...

So only the bus ppl are missing...

So lines are finished, now working on values...from this point, this is not the part I like...coloring and values, I am afraid of it...So only 2,5days.....yeahhhh

I don't know who things go in US, but in Germany we send regularly email with saying, I have new work or I think I fit within this publisher. We write short message, put LINK to our online porfolio and important we put little 1-3 illustrations(I make one small banner JPG which includes 3 illustrations) to persuade them to click on our portfolio. If I don't have direct contact, I write, please forward this email to Your editors. ...

Here example of the size or smaller, should be only eye catcher and doesn't increase the size of the mail

There is this instagram challange #childhoodweek from 7.-13.July (https://www.instagram.com/childhoodweekevent/ by Beatrice Blue) and I really wanted to do at least one promt, so today (ok saturday, now is already sunday here and i have to go sleep...)
So I did the first promt "Books", as I really liked to read, first books were about Mammoths, wolves, Indians.
I didn't do a value or color study, only teh sketch and goooo color....

Getting some daily shapes done, I have to say, I love to draw animals, but ppl...no, have to exercise them more.
