Not if you want the image to speak clearer.
This weekend I went to an illustrator workshop with SCBWI and received some specific comments.
I am taking what I heard and believe to be true as well and making some changes. I think the hardest part is getting from hearing what needs to be done to sitting down and making that happen. It's the resistance in between. But then once I get going, I see there are other changes that would help the image come to life and be stronger as well.
So today I am working on really refining one image, making the changes so I don't have to explain, so it can speak for itself. wooooooo! yes, this is hard stuff, but then again it's fun too.
Want to make red thread bigger and as recommended a shadow
want to make the monster appear he is smooshing down the roofs...
playing with colors
getting closer....
changes are happening, because I am making them-
one little red thread at a time.
