IF - space

I'm linking this to Illustration Friday

on a Saturday!

This is only my second entry

in the Illustration Friday weekly challenge.

This week's topic: SPACE.

dry pastels on paper...

and the little guy was done in watercolor

and black micron pens.

The colors are off (the white space around him is not really this white!)

 but you get the idea.

Weekly challenges like these are great

to help keep me on my toes.

I remember looking at Illustration Friday entries

not so long ago,

and thinking this:

I wish i was good enough to post on IF.

Not so many months later,

and here i am. :-)

I've learned that it has less to do with being good

and more to do with being brave.

Daring to participate.

Daring to share.

Getting past the fear of "not being good enough".

There are some fabulously talented illustrators there,

but i am no longer intimidated.

I am rather pretty happy

about sharing this space

with so many of them.

:-)
