Illustration Friday: Wisdom


This is a design I've been working on for my sister's online shop. I need at least to redo the lettering because I misspelled the shop name and the paper is a bit warped, which really shows in the lettering on the left side. I'm also thinking I need to make the letters shorter and spread more widely so they don't overpower the image. They probably won't be colored the same, either. When it is displayed in the shop, the whole image will be a good bit bigger than what you see here, I expect. 

I decided to share it today as is because I wanted to get it out for the Illustration Friday prompt, "Wisdom." It is wise, I think, to connect more directly and simply with the earth God has given us. My sister will be sharing her natural health wisdom as she sells plants, books, homemade herbal products and other things she makes.

  2. I'm so glad. I put a lot of work into this, was pretty happy with it, but then I felt disappointed by the digital image. I'm relieved that it still communicates!

  3. I think you're being too critical. It's beautiful. It really sets a mood and fills me with happy thoughts. Just a little Photoshop to tweak the lettering. I hope your sister appreciates you!
