Hi Allison, all ok here Ha Ha :) In this illustration you've worked on a drawing, right? You know, what happens to me with your work? You use a palette with very bright colors, high values on the scale. almost no intermediate values and this does not hurt my eyes, it looks correct, perfect! you have a secret to making your work (perhaps nor not you know) but gives to you good results. There's always a detail (I would say "crazy") the blue area. "The" detail In this case, setting a distance between the viewer and the work!
This is my posting for this week's Illustration Friday theme, Imagination. In many cultures, the raven was a symbol of communication with the imagination, and subconcious. It was also viewed as sometimes being a mischievous trickster. At times the sun will strike its feathers at the right angle, and reveal an iridescent band of colour.
This is my posting for the Illustration Friday theme, Totem. Totem is defined as a natural object or animal believed by a society to have spiritual significance, and adopted by it as an emblem. Crane mythology has a long history in many cultures (particularly in Asia) as symbolic of happiness and eternal youth. In Japan, the crane is one of the mystical or holy creatures, and symbolizes good fortune and longevity. It has a fabled lifespan of a thousand years. An ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane. After WWII, the crane came to symbolize peace and the innocent victims of war.
