I 'm a newbie and I'm trying to decide what style of my art to go with. Can y'all share some thoughts on this design/ style on shirts. Thanks everyone! -Abel

Hey Abel! I'm only just starting out too, so I know how you feel.
I really like your style. It reminds me a bit of a children's book illustration, which is a good thing. ;D
Now for the critiqueing part [which really isn't bad].
The animal is cute, but assuming he is a lion, the fur around his head, you might want to make a big bigger or fuller. The body size in proportion to the head [not the face] is a bit too big for it, in my opinion.
The darker color on the back legs is nice to see and it gives the picture some depth and perspective.
Also, I agree with someone above me in saying that the font could be different on a word or two. Pick a word that stands out to you in the phrase/sentence and accentuate it.
That would make it really pop!
Great design. Keep it up!
I took your suggestions into consideration and made changes accordingly. Would you guys mind taking a look at the new changes. This link will show two versions that I made. Could you tell me which one looks better? Thanks everyone!
Hi. This is a very simplistic piece of artwork, so am assuming it is targetted at a particular market segment?
If it helps you out at all, when you start to develop a design, you have to have a vision in your head, not only about what you want to create, but who the design is aimed at. Then when you come to market it, you know who your potential customers are.
I do love the simple flow of the design, it would certainly appeal to children.
I totally made up that font on the fly. I drew out the shapes to make the letters and purposely made them a bit choppy. I'm targetting kids with these designs. Thanks again people. I hope you are all enjoying your own artistic endeavors! Peace! -Abel
