Farewell 52 Week Illustration Challenge and Thank You.

I had a busy, productive year thanks to the facebook prompt page "52 Week Illustration Challenge", which unfortunately is ending this year. I really liked being responsible for at least doing one illustration a week. (Sometimes more.) I was challenged by topics I would not have chosen myself. I got to see other more talented illustrators execute the prompts.  I'm going to miss the challenge. Anyway, thought I'd offer a tribute to the challenge by posting my thumbnails of the year's journey.
(I'll be looking for another illustration challenge group....if you know of any please let me know!)
Have a super 2018!

November/December 2018

Ah, the holidays. Mega time used cooking, shopping, baking, decorating, etc. However I do have a new set of illustrations to share. I find it very relaxing to work in the evening, when nothing good is on TV.

The first few images were done as banners for my facebook pages.

 I experimented with a few dressed owls...

The next group were done to prompts from the facebook page, 52 Week illustration Challenge. Unfortunately, we got word today that the group will end in 2018, so I'll be looking for another Illustration group. Please let me know if you have any suggestions!
