looks really beutiful! the colors intensity is perfect …“harmony” of colors!, the messy fur is a great detail…very good work

#662

the story behind…

This journey begins with a flyer in my mailbox… I read it out load to the guinea pigs and told them. Promise, we are going there and buy a lot of food. And then I put the flyer in the paperpile… But they didn´t wanna wait… oh no! They took the matter in there own paws… They wanted to leave right away on the journey…

Next day when I went in the kitchen and saw what they was doing…They was waiting for the parrot to land… So what to do? Nothing. They had their tickets and money so, just have to wish them luck on their journey…

Wonderful image and story Mona!:thumbsup:
Congratulations on your finished work!

  I will from now on start checking the local bookstores and library for “the little travellers” children’s book!

I’m sure it will be a fascinating story, and make you a lot of money!!:slight_smile:

Hey Mona!

Thank you for the lovely post - and sorry i havent been around for a while -been sooo busy everythings slipped by the wayside a bit and only just managed to get my entry in today! I think your final image is looking great! I’m especially impressed because i find painting fur and feathers especially tricky -but youve handled it brilliantly and pulled everything together into a really sweet fun image! Good luck!

makaron,

I’ve yet to scroll through most of the 2d work, but if yours is any indication, then it must be another crowded field of great skill, ingenious work and stunning adventures.

The brush strokes on fur and feathers show a confident playfulness and your scene exudes a professional illstrative sensibility throughout.

Hopefully the parot can carry your rodents into faraway glory with the judges. :buttrock:

:applause: :thumbsup:
