My place / town / county / borough / province / state




 UPDATE: This is a WIP (work in progress) T-shirt design for a women's clothing boutique here in Campbellsville, KY. Of course, barns are throughout the midwest as well but I happen to know (from the owner's Instagram) that she loves pink barns and with that dream of hers, I'm exploring the idea of a one colour (white) silk screen printed on their soft pink T-shirts! Plenty more comps to come with some other ideas, but at least I have something up for our challenge here too!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How many of you are looking forward to learning something about wherever each of us live? I'm presently thinking about a design that I need to do, featuring something in this area. The trouble is that I really haven't explored the area, nor do I know it that well so it will be a challenge! Whilst I've certainly got a few ideas that still need to be rendered up later today, maybe one of yours will trigger something else for me to explore further.

Let's find out a little bit about your world, shall we?

    Can't wait to see what you come up with Michael, maybe you should do a past place where you lived.

      I ended up getting sentimental about my place and my piece is now displayed in a frame on my fridge.

      Very nice illustration Michael! I love barns myself. They represent a lifestyle I want.

    I like pink farms, well, I like pink things, there's just something about them that just stands out to me.

    your creation looks more purple on my screen but I like the hue.

    I've managed to do something for this week's theme, although unfinished.

    have a lovely day.

    This is smashing Michael - love barns and I'm certain your client will be thrilled with this.

    Best wishes for your Feb. trip which you mentioned in a comment recently - and it's to one of my most favorite places!

    Happy weekend - love to you and Alex.
