If I don't have something like this on the go, screen breaks = snack breaks. This is the base layer of a work in progress - can you guess the fairytale?

My first illustration for @folktaleweek #folktaleweek #folktaleweek2019 is The Girl Who Married A Crow. The #artprompt is #home - the illustration shows the couple returning home. It's an adaptation of a #nativeamerican Folk tale, and my first attempt at making #digitalart with #procreate (big learning curve). #birdart #childrensbooks #childrensbookart #storyteller #magicofart #picturebookart #illo #illustration #illustrationparade #illustrationdaily #canoe #river #art #childrensillustratorsguild #artistsofinstagram #procreateart #ipadpro #maxleemac https://www.instagram.com/p/B4bzQudHIbA/?igshid=4pbrbuurj1ac

This one is from last year when I made my other #ink #fairytale illos. I dont think I posted it at the time because it felt unfinished. I came across it again a few days ago. Its really made me want to get the ink back out... - - - - - #etsy #art #inktober #moon #pumpkin #fairy #cinderella #orange #blue #horse #slipper #prince #sisters #star #wand #crown #silhouette #gothic #darkfairytale #artist #illustrator #storytelling #gothicart #illustration #illustration_daily #artistsoninstagram #childrensbooks #kidlitart https://www.instagram.com/p/B3nEtqnHoKq/?igshid=10y1oq5x7t1la

If you go down to the woods today... ...you might find me there with my pencils. It's my favourite time of year again! From the creators: As temperatures start to drop and leaves start to change, it can only mean one thing: #folktaleweek is coming. This year, we’re releasing the prompts even earlier, so you’ll have plenty of time to discover folktales, work on art, or even write your own tales. And to help you get off to a good start, our friends at @illostories are dedicating their October workbook to Folktale Week Prep!* . Are you in? Let us know by reposting this image or making your own! . How it works: The Folktale Week subjects (prompts) will be released via the hosts Instagram accounts on Oct 7th. Follow them all (below) to find them. Then, on Nov 4th, follow the prompts and share a piece of the art you made in response to them each day. Interpret the prompts however you like. Everyone is encouraged to join in the fun. . Use (and follow) the hashtags #folktaleweek and #folktaleweek2019 and if you’re taking the IlloStories Prep also use #IlloStoriesFTWPrep and #IlloStoriesFolktaleWeek to show your work on Instagram. This way you’ll be able to interact with other artists and IlloStories and the hosts of Folktale Week 2019 can find you via these hashtags and share your work in their newsletters, Instagram feeds and stories! . The doors are open for new artists to join IlloStories and the doors will be open until Sunday Oct. 13th for artist-illustrators to apply. . Folktale Week 2019 was developed by a group of talented artists from all around the world: @jennifermpotter, @devonholzwarth, @andrea_stegmaier, @carolinebonnemuller, @sofiamoore_studio, @heycasshey, @rachaelschaferdesigns, @sandiesonke, @debrastyer, @laure_illustrations @louve.draws, @matejalukezic @shelly_laslo @tanja_stephani @juliachristiansde @thebrotherskent @nicallanart @kathryndurst, @chelslarss and @bonbonoiseau #paulula #paululadesign #illustrationdresden #illustration #inktober #diebbietober2 @diebbie #obscureinkquel #folktaleweek #childrenbookillustrator #childrenbookillustration #kinderbuchillustrator #kinderbuchillustration #kidlitillustrator #kidlitillustration #folktale   https://www.instagram.com/p/B3RZK68HBi1/?igshid=1s7qou317pmeg
