I've just read the story of the Rain Fairy and the Armies of Ants. Truly heartwarming and uplifting. You have a remarkable gift for both writing and illustration that I find really inspiring. I love the value you add in all you do.
I haven't drawn for a VERY long time ~ Gradually starting to again now. Years ago I did a series of drawings of marbles in different situations. Can only recall one of them: A marble in colour detail as a drop earing on a line drawing of a face.
Love the combination of simple line drawings with a small area of colour detail ~ As in the stages you have here. Lovely in their own right. 🌺🐜🌺
