I don't like waiting


You are new here


I don't like waiting for you


Yet I waited


And I waited

Artist comments

A giant tortoise who has lived for hundreds of years never waits.
One day he met this new caterpillar who was full of curiosity and they became friends.
When the caterpillar needed to turn into a chrysalis, the giant tortoise needed to learn to wait.
For the first time in his life, he began to wait.
He waited and waited. Finally, he waited until the caterpillar turned into a butterfly, and he learned to wait for good things.

 

 審査員評

Great whimsical style.
You succeeded to create a magical visual language which tells the story without any words.

A playful piece full of intricate details.

Elyon's illustrations easily trigger the imagination. The artistic technique of collage and colored pencils invite the eye to revisit the composition and rediscover beautiful subtle details. The art process gives the artist the chance to overcome the constraints of his preferred medium but also gives the chance to play around with his very own and beautiful human constraints.
AI deprived us from this. Stay strong.

Jose Sanchez


It is impressive that the artist conveyed the lesson of waiting through beautiful stories and illustrations.
In particular, the unique fairy-tale colors and textures convey nostalgia and warm feelings to the viewer.
The art work shows the artist's high level understanding of art materials.

Eunbi Kang


The illustrations make good use of multiple art materials and have an interesting taste that is typical of picture books.
The use of color is also unique and good.
I would have liked to see the illustration of the scene where the caterpillar becomes a butterfly.
