tomie depaola award entry,
Add a tag
This is my entry for the Tomie de paola Award contest. This year we were to develop a character through a series of panels to show character development. Mine is more of a storyline, I guess. It was fun creating it though.
Good luck to the ten finalists who are moving on to the next round. Especially our Houston illustrator, Cheryl Pilgrim. Loved her entry… so clever!

A daughter is a mother’s gender partner, her closest ally in the family confederacy, an extension of her self. And mothers are their daughters’ role model, their biological and emotional road map, the arbiter of all their relationships. ~Victoria Secunda

This is an illustration I’ve been working on and I thought it fit pretty well with the Illustration Friday prompt Satellite.

It’s the 15th of October, and that means it's time for our group sketch game called "Art by Committee." The way it works is I share an excerpt from a science fiction story and you come up with a picture to go with it.
This month the quote was :
"I became immediately and irrationally angry. How dare this six foot chicken with a silly red crest on top of his narrow foolish head say that we humans were deficient in feii? I controlled...."
You all had fun with the story and the annoying chicken. Thanks to everyone who participated.
Michael Geissler.

Here's the drawing that appears in the original ABC book.
AND please check out
this link for a whole lot more solutions to this ABC challenge by students in Mansfield University's "Intro to Drawing" class.
Now here’s the quote for next month:
“He is shorter than I remember, and thin. His fur is grayed to white in a fringe around his head, just below his ears. His coat is dull, thinning, and coarse. His eyes, so bright I…”
Have fun! Please scale your JPG to 400 pixels across and compress it as much as possible. Title it with your name, send it to: jgurneyart(at)yahoo.com, subject line ABC. Please let me know in your email the full URL of the link to a larger image or your blog or website so people can see your image at full size and learn more about your other work. Please have your entries in by the 12th of November. I'll post the results November 15.
Check out Illustrator James Gurney's blog and a wonderful monthly challenge called Art By Committee for illustrators to take a phrase that Gurney chooses from a science fiction manuscript each month and illustrate it. The next illo is due by February 12th at 10:00 am.
Wednesday is the day for our group sketch game called "Art By Committee." I present an actual excerpt from a science fiction manuscript and you illustrate it.
This week’s challenge about goggles and a dust storm got you going in a lot of unexpected directions, with different concepts of character, story, and mood. Nice work, everybody. Click the images to enlarge, and follow the links to learn more about their creators.
And the one from the original sketchbook.
Here’s next week’s quote: “What surprised me was that I didn’t feel apotheosized, or transmogrified. Didn’t feel like much of a god. I was at the beginning of some process. Eons of further development lay before me, a…”
I hope you have fun with it. Please scale your JPG to around 700 pixels across and compress the heck out of it. Title it with your name, send it to: jgurneyart(at)yahoo.com, subject line ABC, and let me know in your email if you want me to link to your blog or website. Please have your entries in by next Tuesday at 10:00 AM Eastern Time USA.
On Wednesdays we've been playing a group sketch game called "Art By Committee." I present an actual excerpt from a science fiction manuscript and you have all week to illustrate it.
This week’s challenge about an enchanting voice brought out amazingly creative solutions ranging from heartwarming to comic to romantic to vaguely sinister.
If you were too busy to contribute this week, and are looking for a reason to goof off, I hope you can join in next time. The new challenge is at the end of this post.
Thanks to BoingBoing for yesterday's post about my recent unexpected visitors.
Wednesday is the day for our group sketch game called "Art By Committee,” where you illustrate an actual excerpt from a science fiction manuscript.
This week’s quote left some scope for interpretation, especially for the “indescribable” figures. As always, you came up with great ideas, and no two of you took it in the same direction.
...and the drawing in the original sketchbook.
Thanks to you all. I'm amazed every time with what you come up with. Here’s the challenge for next Wednesday: “Wildon, a big hulking dude, went into a crouch and threw out his arms, ready to catch the running Jeremy.”
Please scale your JPG to around 700 pixels across. Title it with your name, send it to: jgurneyart(at)yahoo.com, subject line ABC, and let me know in your email if you want me to link to your blog or website (even if you told me before). Please have your entries in by next Tuesday at noon.

P.S. Thanks to Simon Owens of Bloggasm for the
nice writeup about the recent Unexpected Visitors.
Wednesday is the day for our group sketch game called "Art By Committee,” where you illustrate an actual excerpt from a science fiction manuscript.
This week’s quote was: “...selection, so that evolution had leaped. Somehow all that other people noticed about her particular subspecies was its supposed simian characteristic.”
Everyone has come up with amazingly clever results, and I encourage you to follow the links to each of the artists’ websites and blogs. Be sure to scroll down to the end of the post for next week’s challenge.

And finally the drawing in the original “Art By Committee” sketchbook.
Here’s the challenge for next Wednesday. "
It may have been a castle, but it was unlike anything you'd see in history books. An alien hand had drawn the blueprints; I was willing to bet on that."
Have fun! Please scale your JPG to around 700 pixels across. Title it with your name, send it to: jgurneyart(at)yahoo.com, subject line ABC, and let me know in your email if you want me to link to your blog or website. Please have your entries in by next Tuesday at noon.

This a favorite prank from Ghost and Monster's cousins, Frankie and Ghoulie.
Cook a whole heap of spaghetti, rinse it off with cold water and toss into a large bowl. Put it in the fridge for a few hours.
Have guests either blindfolded or close their eyes tight. They have to stick their hands into the bowl and guess what what they are touching. The ewww factor comes in when you tell them it's monkey brains! Want even grosser? Add in some peeled grapes for eyeballs.
Keep the "monkey brains" hidden each time so all the guests are surprised.
Happy Halloween!

Thank you for hosting this for so long. This crop of illustrations is lots of fun.

Thanks so much for letting us play in your sandbox! It's been so much fun. And it was great to see the original interpretations, too!
