IF - Pale

They met under the pale moon kite.

pastel on paper

This is a project I'm participating in with Westside Illustrators (SCBWI) in Santa Monica. The challenge was to create an illustration from three words randomly selected.

These are the words I was assigned:
SPACESHIP - SEA LIFE - URBAN

"Can Fish Fly?"

This was my first version using Sea Life, Spaceship, and Urban. But half way thru adding the color, I thought, "Why didn't I make the characters cats instead of children?". So I had to try ... while I was at it I simplified the image and made it more whimsical.

IF - Balloon

Sometimes a person's just gotta doodle. This little guy reappeared from childhood memories.

Maybe one day I'll finish him in color. If I do, he'll be powder blue with a little fuzz missing.
