SCBWI Draw This - Alone

It has been a while since I've posted. I have a ton going on which is all good, so I've not been posted much. This is something I have to share! I have a bunch more fun news and projects to share so stay tuned.


Every month SCBWI hosts a drawing challenge #SCBWIDrawThis with a prompt word. For May the prompt words was #Alone. I thought long and hard on the concept of alone, trying to visualize what would epitomize this word. This idea struck me the morning the illustration was due. I almost didn't finish it having self-doubt take over about half way through. If you watch my video on YouTube, you'll see in the Procreate timelapse, I started with a girl that was just not working, but the idea wouldn't let me go. So, I finished it late that night and submitted it with minutes to spare. See the full gallery of participants here.


I present to you: Alone

How often did you sit alone as a child on a teeter totter waiting, wishing, hoping someone would join you?

I'm glad you didn't give up as you created a beautiful and wonderfully evocative portrait of the feeling of aloneness. Great job!
