Artist’s comment:
I am so incredibly honored to have been chosen for this award! Feraligatr is normally a very fierce Pokémon, but I wanted to depict a moment of calm, as if Feraligatr is enjoying a morning swim and watching the sun break through the water. To try to capture this feeling, I took style inspiration from my love of linocut and risograph printing. I’m thrilled to be able to join so many other skilled artists in contributing to Pokémon. Thank you for all your support.
Judge's Comments:
The expression of light created by layering colors is wonderful. It seemed to convey the atmosphere in the clear water. I thought that the composition of looking up from under the water was perfect for bringing out the light coming in from above. We tend to think of cool illustrations for Feraligatr, but the overall use of gentle and calm colors and the pose of swimming leisurely in the water is refreshing.
The style really shows the artist’s individuality and is charming. I felt as if I was looking through the artist’s lens at the life of Feraligatr, and I felt that this story of Feraligatr had begun—my imagination expanded, and I felt an exciting worldview.
I loved the simplicity and unique texture of this piece. The lines really help accentuate the natural charm of Feraligatr swimming. I especially loved how this expressed a relaxed atmosphere through the underwater setting.
