Blind Contour Friday 10



I am a few days late posting for InkFinger's Blind Contour 10. I did several illustrations for this week's challenge but just wasn't satisfied with the results.

Today I met with my friend Karen, who is a very talented and successful illustrator. As with each time we get together, our conversations fill me with a sense of kindship, of not being alone when struggling with our busy lives, all the while trying to follow our passion for illustration with a freshness of concepts and creativity. I leave with a renewed sense of energy and drive and think "I CAN DO THIS". When I got home I sat down and created this illustration and am quite pleased with the way it turned out. I hope Karen, that I have inspired you too, in some way to take time for yourself and spread your creative wings. You're a very talented and amazing illustrator and such an inspiration. Thank you, this one's for you!

This is fabulous! The accurate colors take blind contours to a whole new level--like looking at the oatmeal box with a bad hangover or without one's glasses. Super job!

Oh, this is great..the colours look wonderful and really add to it. The man on the box looks creepy! The whole thing looks a bit hallucinatory, with the letters all flying about.
Cool!
