Next batch of designs

For the "paint by number" contest, I used the paint-by-number roses I made for Maren's quilt, with bolder colors.



My favorite was the heron woods.

For "vintage postcards," I did the BACKS of postcards.



My favorite was the Hawaiian themed cards.

Then we had a theme to do an animal portrait that would fit on a tea towel. I thought it would be funny to do a tribute to the inescapable "Baby Shark" song, but in the style of those really old-fashioned portraits with the baby in a big, lacy white dress. So that was fun! I wanted to add more detail to the frame, to make it look like a carved wood frame, but ran out of time.



Next the challenge was to do a print that would work for boys' clothing. I adapted the orange doodle design I did of a bunch of Bruce's favorite stuff and did it in color instead.



My favorite was the bugs on stripes.

Lastly, another restricted palette contest where we had to use bronze, peach, and light & dark teal (and optionally black and white). I based my design on this image and added some mysterious symbols.



I thought the ginkgo best used these colors.

Of all these entries, the boys' clothing doodle did by far the best!
