In my spare time, I try to participate in online line art forums, contests, and critiques as often as I can. Since last year, I have been a member at SVSLearn and have relished the material/courses/interaction. SVSlearn offers monthly art challenges that feature a prompt with certain criteria. I did not participate in last month's challenge but I wanted to give July's prompt a shot.

My version of Albert is a critter that loves the outdoors, revels in conspiracy theories and Cryptozoology, gets lost in thought easily, and can sometimes come across as inconsiderate and overly enthusiastic. He now lives with a family of cats that have become accustomed to a life of domestication, comfort, and ease. Albert's inquisitive nature, thirst for adventure and the outdoors, and his eagerness to involve his family members in his greatest passions can sometimes be both a blessing and a curse.

In my indoor scene, Albert has just rushed in from an outdoor camping trip, trailing mud and rain water on the floor. He interrupts his adopted siblings in the middle of a crucial football game to tell them about a creature he encountered in the woods: a giant Easter Bunny! Needles to say, they are less than thrilled and do not believe that Albert has any evidence to back up his claims.

I think that if I developed the idea further, I would leave the question as to whether or not these Fantastical creatures exist open ended. I tried to visually represent the ambiguity of the cryptid (easter bunny) by depicting it in a different style.

Thanks for any feedback as always and good luck to everyone!!!
