Painting Puppies
Added 2022-01-04 07:00:02 +0000 UTCPart of being a professional artist is you have to occasionally do tests for the author or publisher. They'll give you a brief description and see what you come up with. This was a test I did for a kid's book about painting puppies different colors. The watermark I add to such pieces to prevent the receiver from just using the art without paying for it. I also only sent low-resolution copies of the art at this stage to protect my work. They honestly rejected it because I included a Muslim girl after repeatedly requesting hi-resolution versions without the watermark (all red flags).
I'm glad I didn't take the job.
