Row Row your boat - Submitted!

I have finally submitted the art work for 'Row Row your boat' to London Art College. :) Overall I am quite pleased with how it turned out, and had positive feedback. It is surprising how many things you change or do differently from what you originally planned, you just never know how things will work out.

I had originally planned for the 'dream boat' to be floating up to the sky but I just couldn't get it to work logistically, so along came all the carrots! I am not sure what rabbits dream about, carrots? Not sure but they do add a nice pop of colour to my artwork so I just went with it! :)

The frog was a last minute addition as it was suggested I needed more characters.

What i have learnt - pastels are can be fiddley but I love, love using them, I just love the over all texture they give; Suggestion from tutor - be careful of red, it draws the eye; You can plan an overall illustration to some extent but it may change along the way; I can't wait to get going on the next project! :))
