This is my first entry in an SCBWI illustration contest. This is the assignment:
We’ve all heard about the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I don’t know about you, but I’ve never found one… So, your task for this contest is to illustrate what’s REALLY there. (No images of an empty sidewalk.)
My solution: At the end of the rainbow is a pot of Grendma’s chicken noodle soup!
Contest #18 – Rainbow’s End

I finally got around to finishing the idea I wanted to do for Illustration Friday’s
What is with the “sp” topics? Spring… Speed… Spotted…
Anyway, here we have La Bug Jatte.

Topic was “speed” so I tried to do it up really fast, too. Total: 4.5 hours. I’m getting better. Bill’s fascinated with what he calls my “zen archery” approach to illustration.
Eh. Sometimes an illustration is just forced. It’s been a busy week. I also need to stop drawing partial bedrooms for a while!
