June Toons 2023 #25: Life Guard

Here's my twenty-fifth illustration for June Toons - a life guard, on duty!

Today, my wife gave me the idea of doing a cartoon of the beach, but I don't think this is what she had in mind. 😆

I like the idea of this one more than my execution of it - it just ended up a little busy for me. I also worked on this one outside as the day got a bit hot, and it made it difficult for me to concentrate on my pen pressure/line width. I like the colors though!

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Syrup brush for linework, and the Tarraleah brush and Splatter spray paint brush for background texture.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
