I had a friend ask me to paint an image for a book she was making for her mom. She asked if I could emulate an artist from a children's book. I can't remember the name of the artist or else I would give credit. I wanted to have two story's each of them about reading to someone so I separated the two images by a break wall. The sketch I did, and than I just emulated the artist style and texture of their painting. I also wanted it to be apparent that this was a painting...I didn't want the edges for the composition to be the ending of the painting. Overall I'm pretty happy with it.
