Critique from Dan Santat

Dan Santat is an author/illustrator god who was a keynote speaker, workshop leader and all-around inspiration. He also led an illustrator's Master Class where he critiqued work we had sent in earlier. He was pretty easy on my stuff, but he did point out that just about EVERY FRICKIN' PICTURE I had sent in had a character with a big grin and arms straight out like they're gonna hug the living crap out of you. Man, I had never noticed THAT before. (click on the picture and it will grow magically)
