Hello, So here are my 5 Thumbnails studies, Really enjoyed doing it . And best of luck to everyone !

Here are my submissions! I painted these from reference photos I took on a trip to beautiful British Columbia this past autumn. The landscape there is so different to what I'm used to, so I wanted to capture the mountains, forests, and dazzling sunsets. These are painted in gouache on watercolour board, using 6 colours plus white (lemon yellow, yellow ochre, cadmium red, permanent rose, phthalo blue, ultramarine blue). I made a bunch of other ones but decided on these for my final 5. Great challenge! Love to see everyone's work.

Phew! I NEVER do landscapes, so this was a welcome trip outside my comfort zone! Had so much fun painting these, it's a brilliant exercise for using colour and shapes, will definitely do it again. Please tell me what you think! Painted digitally using Photoshop.

Hello everyone :) I loved this challenge! While I had never really done any landscape studies, I desperately wanted to start and practice painting backgrounds, so this was the perfect opportunity. Below you can see my little paintings. They were done in Procreate and the scenes depicted are all in the village I grew up in. I'm still at my parents' for Christmas break, so for some of my paintings I stood outside in the cold and drew while my fingers were slowly freezing off - but I think it was worth it! :D

Hi :) my name is Hanna, I‘m 21 years old and currently studying to become an art teacher in Germany. I‘m planning on continuing doing fine arts to maybe build a career and would love to do some illustration work in the future. At the moment I‘m trying to get away from only drawing singular characters without backgrounds 😅 let’s see how that goes. Take care and thanks for your time :)

This is my submission for this month's challenge; the mother of lemurs. :D I used the organic refs such as the leaves, grasshopper wings, fruit, but mostly the fluffy lemurs!

Hi guys this is odun from Nigeria and here's my final submission for this month challenge

Hi! This is my entry. I made it on paper with pencil and pen (lines) and in photoshop (shading).

This is my entry for the challenge, created with pen and ink on paper. Meridionali Dryadalis A small carnivorous species of pixie native to the rain-forests of South America. They are extremely territorial, each individual requires an area of at least four square miles, males and females meet only once a year in order to mate. Meridionali Dryadalis are very clever, numerous sightings of individuals wearing a rudimentary amour constructed from the hide of their prey, were reported. Some scientists even believe Meridionali Dryadalis to be capable of constructing sophisticated weaponry, such as rapier-like weapons from the beaks of small birds. PS: this is my first Proko challenge, thanks I had lots of fun with it.
