What an emotional week indeed. It is quite a learning process. I think it is very challenge to draw same character in different emotions. I tried in black and white sketches and also did a few painterly look to see what brings out more energy. Was great to learn more. Week two is over here. Looking forward to week three @makeartthatsells .

After live review. I concentrated only on Greta. If the character does not have the spark energy or I don’t have a feeling of it. Neither will be the kid. So I changed her outfit. She is living in the forest. So I brought some earthy warm color to her. And she has a great energy now. Did you like her new look? A total character make over. Thanks Lilla Rogers and Zoe Tucker for the review. And also I want to thank Jennifer M Potter for the insights. Looking forward to develop the rest emotion. A few people ask from me from my last post what is my techniques.
Her is my approach: first I used pencil B sketch out my character, erase a few lines before I fixed one. Then I made a bunch of them. I then chose the one I love most from the line work or shapes or overall look. I put overall a layer of skin color on my original sketches. And then I work further with ink, gouache or acrylic. I used watercolor for her face. It did not show up evenly on her skin tone. I touched up in Procreate. Then I added the bird and bunny and highlighted her eyes with Apple pen in Procreate. It was fun to keep tweaking for hours. I love to the combination of traditional and modern techniques .

Busy with character and its accessories for the book illustration @makeartthatsells Week one it is all about character. I love the story so much. It is written by Zoe Tucker. And it talked about the little girl gretathunberg and the wolves. It’s not purely a fairytale story. It has meaningful messages about protecting our forest. .

Sketch for my character Greta for the story written by Zoe Tucker @makeartthatsells With #lillarogers It has been quite an interesting process for me to draw her. It is in a fairytale setting maybe with a bit contemporary twist. Do you like her? She is very brave. Does she have spark ? Do you like her? It is one of my many ideas I am working on. Try to narrow down a few. So looking forward to show you more. What kind of accessories do she like to have? Let’s see. .

Once a month, I am making a gift for someone special. During the evening, I have more peaceful mind. Play with clay or put a little sketch on my paper it all helps me to calm down through the storm.
Life is not all easy. Every once a while I have challenges in my life, business or what ever. I am struggling, but I never give up till I get it.
There is a way in our life to teach us a lesson, to challenge us to a different situation where we don’t want to be; or maybe close the door completely or make you almost devastate and lost hope for everything. I have been there. Not once, not twice, three times. You think you are at the end of the world, at the button of the ocean. I never thought I am capable of going through it. What keeps me strong? What magic string attached me and pulled me through? I looked back and asked myself? It is the love from people I love. Because the whole universe is telling one thing to me:” you can do it, make it happen with the way you love people”! Love kept me strong no matter what kind of situation I have been, where ever I have been! Deep down in my heart, I have a burning desire to turn things around with the love for people, my love for good stories and love for meaningful words.
Thank you my dear family and friends. July is indeed a lovely month. I always love it.
I can not send back all the messages one by one to you now. I just use this opportunity to say “THANK YOU”!!!!! So grateful to have you. .
