Lovely Whales

  So the MATS Assignment Bootcamp project this month was a nautical theme, 
with a ship in a bottle being the inspiration.  I sketched these right before leaving
for vacation.  While away the assignment was released by Lilla Rogers, which was
to create wall art.  
   I have been stressing a lot about what design direction to take.  Not very happy with my
final work.  I didn't have time to put much into the thought process before execution.
Maybe I was trying to be too graphic oriented and I forgot about the art part.  
My other idea was to do a chart which perhaps would have been more successful.
I also wish I would have hand painted.  Sometimes I get fooled into thinking 
working digitally will be faster but that isn't always so.  Anyway, I like my baby 
looking whales and I may do something later with them.  I really want to do something
more related to children's books.  My style is so versatile it is hard to control at times.
I really need to work on developing my point of view.  Working in so many medias
can look scattered.  This summer I am going to take the time to really focus.  
  Sorry for the belated post.  Peace out and goodnight.  
Have a whale of a good tale to tell.
