"small" -- illustration friday topic -- 11/25/05 -- #348 on www.illustrationfriday.com (#149 on the archive's list)
this week's topic of "small" on illustration friday instantly brought to mind the size and strength of a developing fetus. i probably thought of this because this is just about the size of my next grandchild, who is due to arrive in may, 2006. as far as size goes, this fetus also displays an amazing amount of strength as it grows/develops/prepares for birth.
this picture was done w/ prang colored pencils on white sketch pad paper and based on a photo taken of a 13-week old fetus using infrared photography (which makes the fetus look dark w/ glowing edges floating in an irridecent gel capsule.

WOW... you really achieved a special glow with the pencils. Good for you! And congrats on the new little one arriving in 2006. :)
This really does have a glow to it. I also want to extend congratulations to you. What a wonderful choice for your EDM Challenge of what to be thankful for!!
This is lovely. Poignant for me too as my first grandchild is about this size too right now. Due in June. :o)
