First Swim of the Season by Nicnak044

First Swim of the Season

Nicnak044

I think that's what I titled it for the show...I have no idea XD I hate coming up with titles.

I entered my works art show....WHICH IS TERRIFYING OH GOD. WHY?
They have seasonal art shows, this one being summer (durr) and they're fancy, and wine is provided..and I decided to join in cause the interns were allowed, so why not?! My company has not just animation, but film, publishing, broadcasting...everything o_o And I've always wanted a side career as a children book illustrator, so I'm really trying to reach out to them here x3 The original idea I sketched during lunch break one day, and it stuck from that point on! Everyone loves platypus'! :D

I am a character intern too, so I wasn't too worried about trying to make an impression with them..but ahhh, I'm still hoping I jump out x3

The art show was last Thursday, but the framed works were due last Tuesday after work, so I had to rush out the night before to get a frame and stuff.

This is also going up for sale during the show..I don't have a set price so if someones interested I'll haggle...but I don't have high hopes x3

However, after the show is taken down, they don't keep my art, and it doesn't sell, I'd be happy to sell this on here, complete with the frame (and its a nice frame...not crappy ones like the ones I had for my FE pieces, ugh x_x)

YUP THATS IT.

EDIT: OH!
Also, style inspired by louvelex. I sadly had NO idea about this artist until recently when foxjump gave me his poster from FWA 2014 that this artist designed and I was..well blown away obviously. It's a style I absolutely love and really want to be able to acheive..so I'm hoping I succeeded? Maybe?? ;A;
(Of course, theirs is all traditional, but I hope I at least got that feeling with the digital technique..I don't know :S )

    This is really adorable, I love the soft colours and the use of cross-hatching. I hope the show went really well!
