Okay, I like this, but it has some logic problems. No, I’m not talking about the logic problems inherent in an anthropomorphic flower. This is a children’s illustration. Anything can have a face and do humanish things.

What I mean is how, really, he (she?) shouldn’t be holding the canvas. It should be on an easel. And that thick brush is too thick to produce the detail shown on the canvas. And where is his paint palette?

Also, the poor thing’s pot is way too small.

So, my question is, does it matter? Am I being nitpicky, or does that actually make a difference?

Actually, it’s irrelevant. I can feel my perfectionism kicking in. I’m going to fix this, regardless of if it really needs it or not. 🙂

She still needs some work. I don’t like the teeth and the eyes look kind of dopey.

Pastel Version of Sheep

October 7, 2011May 14, 2012Leave a comment

Here’s a pastel version of the sheep image I posted yesterday. I really liked playing with the hash marks all being the same direction as the lines on the rays of the sun. Technically, the sun’s behind the sheep. It should be back-lit. But that didn’t work so well with the hash marks. I may do a watercolor version with it backlit and see how that looks. But, anyhow, here’s today’s sheep.
