Wonderful cartoon, Chien-Hua! You are certainly creative and colorful in your toons and designs. This little 'Dragon-Boat' is sweet and nicely done. I would have given more depth and angle showing the inside of the boat some, and a hint of sky, but other than that, I feel this is a nice piece, complete and fun to look at, as is all of your work. Simplicity is great, but even cartoons do well with a tad of background. Your facial expressions are always so interesting and make me *smile*. The scales are nice, and you did a great job with shading...however, the light appears to hit the front side of the dragons chest, but the shading on the back of the girl is not in agreement. Try a few 'white' thickened lines for your water instead of black pencil stroke and blend in for waves and light highlites. I am very much in love with your precious little figures and art. They are so fun to look at. Your creativeness and style seem to be well admired and appreciated in Art Wanted, and I for one am pleased with what I see.
