[ Art ] mOnthly grOw (May '26)

This archived image will be available for purchase as part of the BustArtist Patreon Collection (2026, 2nd Quarter), when it becomes available at in my Patreon Shop or BustArtist.com in July 2026.

This month's winner of the mOnthly grOw illustration (May'26) is K D, who entered this into the March'26 Watercolor Contest and came in a very close 2nd Place : 26 v 25 v 21. Their idea is of a woman on the beach with "beachball" breasts in a bikini that looks like a beachball.

Final images coming tomorrow! Here are 18 work-in-progress images. WIP-18 is not the final image, as a few more items of spit and polish will be applied!

Style: COLOR

Patron requests included: Hair color and length; tanned skin; toned muscles; no breast veins; no details**Details: such as freckles, jewelry, glasses, etc.

Now, the patron did not want any extra details. However, the model I used as reference had a beautiful smattering of freckles across her nose and cheeks. I had to add them. But I also included the first version without them. (See attached)

Concept:

Woman on Spring Break with size 12 breasts and butt size 4, toned body, and is in an outstretched bikini that resembles a typical beach ball. She says to herself, "Nothing better than having a few beachballs at the beach.”++ Edited slightly by me for clarity.

2 versions:• Original: No freckles• Alt.: with freckles
