After I finished drawing Grey Flowers, Golden Frames and putting it on physical products, I stopped and thought, "You know, I like the pattern in this picture, but the color scheme isn't really doing it for me."   "It didn't work out as well as it did in the photo that inspired it, and besides, I feel like this picture has a lot of untapped potential I could bring out if I just played with the colors a bit." So I played with the colors, and got several versions I'm much happier with.       After I made the purple, pink and blue version, it didn't quite look right with flat colors. I wanted it to look shiny, like the crystal blocks in Terraria, so I decided to try adding shadows and highlights. I really like the way it worked out. I shared the green, blue and yellow version in ProjectComment, and one of the commenters suggested a new color scheme with darker, softer greens. I tried it and liked it, so I added it here.

Grey Flowers, Golden Frames Cerulean Flowers, Sky-Blue Frames Gold Flowers, Garnet Frames Gold Flowers, Green Frames Green Flowers, Green Frames Pink and Blue Flowers, Purple Frames Green Flowers, Forest Frames  For the last few months, I've been working with Andrea Fluhman to bring her very first book, #wingman, to publication. This book is based on her experiences in positions of leadership and her observations of other leaders, and it aims to help others to give and receive the support they need, whether as a leader or as a leader's wingman. I provided advice when this book was still just a rough first draft, and grammatical editing after that. Once it was written and edited, we also collaborated to create the synopsis and cover art. The butterflies were originally sketched by her cousin, but because they were hand-drawn on paper, I needed to trace them so I'd be able to put them on her chosen background and adjust their coloring. My initial concept art for the cover had a sky background, and a variety of options for the butterfly colors and text font.  After reviewing that, she decided she preferred a black background with the rainbow butterflies, leading to the final version of the cover below. The front cover is on the right, and the back cover is on the left.  Now, her book is finally out there for all the world to see, and I'm so happy for her. :D
I encourage you to check out her book, and get a copy if it seems like something you would find helpful. My latest piece of artwork was inspired by a photo with an interesting floor in it. Here's a snippet of the photo in question:  I wanted to try something similar, but obviously with my own spin on it. It ended up being quite a departure from the "wood and marble" feel of the original floor, and I might have made the gold parts too thick compared to the grey, but I do like the general concept, and I might try similar pieces of artwork with different color schemes in the future.
