Likewise on transfiguration! It's amazing how you were able to capture the vibe of your inspiration photo without it being a replica. I love it!
I like how it turned out too. Both of them. I wasn't totally sure about including the inspiration photo, but I like that it lets people know what I was going for. There will definitely be some where people are like "but why did you choose THAT?" and we'll just have to agree to disagree.

I get the paper struggle, though you are handling it quite nicely. Paper quality can make a big difference. I had that issue last year with the paper I was using with my colored pencils. They wouldn't blend as nicely and I just decided to stop torturing myself with that paper.
I do remember the struggle last year! I'm not sure that I can talk myself into giving up on this paper, since I paid money for it and EVERYTHING, but it's going to be pretty limited to working with color like this and nothing where I care at all about how well the paper holds up to water and doesn't drink up color immediately. Slurpy slurp paper monster.

I like that I found colors that remind you of your business branding, though! Dreamy and magical, that's my MJ friend.

lemme echo mj here real quick because I also loooove your take on completing these prompts, and you know i'm a big fan of exactly the kinds of lil doodle paintings you are doing with the colour palettes you choose. it's all very whimsical in here and I am particularly enamoured with the palette and painting for dissendium and the way the colours are interacting with each other but I definitely get the dreamy magical vibes in transfiguration too

I can't wait to see what else you come up with ;;
Ah, my enemy. You will see many a doodle in here, because that's where I live right now. Doodleburg. I'll have to make sure I impress you with my mad color matching skills... or something like that.
