New Illo: It’s Snowing!
Published in: Illustration
Here’s an illustration I’ve been working on this week. I’m obviously in a wintery mood! :) We’ve been getting quite a lot of snow here in Ottawa – a big difference from this time of year in Nova Scotia (where I’m originally from)! I need to get my act together and start making submissions for Illustration Friday. This past week’s topic ‘Zoo’ just wasn’t festive enough for my liking ;) But that’s besides the point…
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this one! I’m still trying to get my new illustration style down so I’d love to hear if you feel it fits in with my other illustrations and if my kid’s are consistent with the style. I wasn’t quite sure how to show the glass of the window so I added a light opacity of white and cleared a spot for the kid’s faces (just like they wiped off the frost). Does that work? Is there another way I could do it? I’d love to hear your thoughts! …or just tell me what you think by rating it in my sketchbook!
Thanks everyone!

This illustration is really nice ! The children are great. I’ve already rated it in your sketchbook.
Why not somme bricks around the window…
