This is such a clever concept. I love the avocado center on the sun and the avocado couple sunning themselves on the beach. You should add the Peace, Love, and Avocado symbol that they use for this festival and see whether they would buy the rights to print and sell it for next year's festival.

Nice work on this one Daphne. It looks like it could be used to really advertise the festival.

Is this going to be used as an official Festival Poster? If not it Should be. I love the pastel colors and the very imaginative way you have created Mr. and Mrs. Avocado.

Excellent entry for the contest Daphne and I wish you all the best in the Judging ~ Steve

    Thank you so much for your kind review, Steve. Several artists submitted art for posters for the festival, but my friend Topaz, who is actually submitting it down in Carpinteria, a town on the coat just above Malibu, (I live just above San Francisco in Northern California,) says she will know if it will be selected in the next few days. If it is we get 500 dollars plus free cruises and all kinds of perks. She is giving me 300 and she will keep $200 if it is selected. The concept of two strolling avos with an umbrella was hers, upon which I embellished and built a design. We will see. If it is selected, I will let you know! Thanks again. Did you view the video we also collaborated on? She composed the song and sang it, I did the graphics and put it together... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_zrqXAxO2o&t=35s Daphne Oberon

This is a great way to advertise the festival! The colors are inviting and cheerful, and the avocados look great. I think the umbrella is a great touch

Very well created avocados under the yellow umbrella , the bright sun behind an avocado that has been opened the beach sand and blue sky with the puffy white clouds ,are well shown and I like the pebble and shell too! Well created , arranged and presented! Best wishes to you in the contest!

This is an interesting looking digital artwork! A fine illustration for the avocado festival! The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good luck!

Comment from Mr Jones


really dynamic, vital poster with such a good message; concerning this wonderful super-food. really lovely, natural colours. inviting pastel shades and a very happy, feel-good vibe to the whole structure of the image. the characters are so lifelike the center of the nut, inside the fruit is delightful.

    well deserved. i'm soo happy you stay here and with your incredible art.

    Yes seems like sort of a borderline miracle that, at the last minute I stayed. How warm does it get in England in summer these days -- summer has sprung here and it is 93 degrees indoors with fan and small air conditioner at max -- hard to work on the laptop in this heat but it isn't smoking yet. The cat is about passed out -- he got heat stroke -- actually they both did in 2016 when it went up to 103 inside. I give water with ice cubes, and am trimming off Firefly's long hair with shears but the wants to participate and play with them so it is difficult. I have a big pile of "cat wool" heaped up beside him! This weather can last till November -- pfah!! V

    Firefly is enjoying his ice-cubes! I am certainly glad I have those for him. He is Siberian Forest Cat type -- like your brother's husky in Thailand, not bred for hot weather!!
