This was for an article in Thriving Family Magazine about helping your child cope with living in 2 houses with divorced or separated parents. The actual images were further apart with the text in between them on the spread.
I tried to make the 2 homes have some similar colors but feel like they were in different places to show the difference and possible distance. I think I like how the left house turned out a lot more than the right one. Dunno why.
Also for a short article in Thriving Family Magazine. The topic was prayer as a way to support family members over a long distance. Due to my misunderstanding, I originally made the grandmother Caucasian. I was asked to change it and I think the piece came out better because of it.
My favorite part is the patterns I drew on the cloth. I particularly like the mother's blouse.
And here's a sketch with some test color for my ongoing "secret" comic project. I don't have as much experience with creating comics as I do with illustration in general and the progress is slow going. But I'm working with some great friends who not only provide good work and ideas, but very helpful criticism. I'll post more when it's ready. Most of the work is still in penciled/sketch form.
