satellite


*POOF* Illustration Friday already!

This week, the prompt is "satellite", and the only thing I could think to draw was an actual satellite - whether man-made or a moon of some kind. YAWN...

People are actually my favorite subject for illustrating, and I remembered a photo we had of Meego flying a kite. So I reproduced that with a huge satellite in place of the whimsical kite. Now, I do KNOW that this version is physically impossible! I was trying to be outside the box, okay?!

And it was actually pretty fun. I've been inside the box enough this week.

Happy Friday!

Hello there Abby:) Thinking outside the box is always a good thing for artists, don't you think? And you seem to be quite successful at it too! This is a marvelous piece. :)

I think it is a pretty good rendition from a photo. Nice job working outside the box!

I'm actually way more into drawing people than anything else too...and it doesn't matter one whit to me that this is "impossible"--in the experience of a child's imagination, this is quite likely and I really really like it.
