Glad to see the forum back up :chug:

Another picture book illustration of Bam the cat... about 7 more to go to finish the book.

"He bats at insects. He even chases an occasional field mouse,
but mostly he waits for the cold weather to return."

Hmm, I think that blue bites the green.

I would try a medium warm brown for the font :)

i feel like that light neon green border is too saturated and bright-henceforth it shall be detracting thine viwers eye from thyne cool illustration

aslo on the type i would use colors that are in the second pic to help balance the spread out color-wise
(white, grey, light blue, (?)
great patterns on the first page with the shrubbery---ty

Some comments on the border and font and color. I consider the font more-or-less a placeholder. I'm still looking for a font. But, if a publisher does become interested, I suspect the publisher's art director will make the final determination :)

As for the border, it is currently there just to separate the left and right pages... I don't expect it to be in the final product... perhaps, but again it will be decided by an art director if a publisher gets interested.

Still looking for that publisher... :confused:
