Worlds of IF (April 1957)
Her pose is so outrageously cheesecakey you have to laugh. Oh my, you've caught me clad only in an impractically small towel! And the alien is wolf-whistling with one of his many limbs, seriously?

Demons demons demons. One of them looks a bit like an undead Trapjaw.
My little mermaid having her spring bath in the virtual wall of the Bologna Children Book fair!
I suffer from a gigantic imposter syndrome about children illustrations, so it took me a lot of determination to finally decide to submit it to such a high-profile event.
And it feels so good to see it there!

Happy world frog day!! 
I love all batrachians and it always makes me happy to draw them.
Lurline was affected, and owned, with a tear
That a story so mournful had ne'er met her ear…

Hi, you lovelies! I just sent off my folio for the Bologna Book Fair after finishing this last drawing. I'm sooo tired now, and today I feel really drained.
Nonetheless, these little guys, who live in thistles, having an early morning coffee and a chat, cheered me up, so I wanted to share them with you. Maybe they will make you smile too. Wishing you a lovely almost-weekend!
