This was for a Christmas card sale the senior class had planned to do. Unfortunately, I forgot to submit the image for printing so it never got out into the public. I'm...kinda happy that it didn't. I'm just wondering where in the world went my color sense 'cause these are fine examples of muddy colors. Whoopsies. UH, AT LEAST IT'S CUTE, RIGHT?
This was pretty fun, actually. The class assignment was to create an illustration in a matter of six hours while given a random prompt. Mine was "royal tumble." I had grand plans to make different sorts of royalty tumbling down a hill like those cheese roll chasing festivals, but the perspective required to do that was much too ambitious for such a short amount of time.
In the end, I shortened my idea to do a laundry with dolls of different royalty tumbling in it as if they were the toys of the little girl in the front. It ended up manga-ish in my rush to finish and, in retrospect, that is one huge dryer. It was interesting and a little troubling that I could complete an entire illustration in one day since now I know I can finish this fast and that I procrastinate a lot more than I thought I did.
There's also the tiny, niggling fear that my usual quality of work that takes me weeks to finish can be done in six hours as well. I'm not sure if that's a fair thing to think about to myself or if I really should reconsider my technical work.
