Flawed



Illustration Friday challenge for January 30, 2009. "Though he definately had his flaws Henry still managed to blend in a crowd!"
I want to start a club..."Artists that have never been picked for Illustration Friday's 'Pick of the week!' 5 years now. Sad, I know. But, then again I usually don't win contests either! LOL!! Just thought I would post this for all you artists out there who say to yourself, "how come my work never gets picked?!" Feel better?!

I did not know IF has been around for five years. About never being picked; I am convinced that no one that gets "pick of the week" actually drew their picture that week.

The crowd and Henry are great.

Hey, so appropriate -- the work, the description, and the lead you gave me on Bev Doolittle. I knew I knew her work! Thanks!

Thank you for the comment. This is really cute love Henry's eyes, very funny. I like the colors also and you never know about winning, I liked your climbing one too!

Great subtle concept! Who could ask for more (should that be hoo ... sorry). Crazy owl, perfect expressions and dragonflies are just plain cool in any context! One of these days for IF pick OTW... maybe Henry will do it for you...? Got my fingers crossed!

I figure I win just by posting - Hurrah! I've done something creative! Who needs someone else to decide I won?
Your post here is certainly a winner in my eyes. It is on topic, clever, well done, attractive, and delightful.
