ReplyDeleteYippee! Yippee! I've got Carla's Imaginary Creatures at ArtFest this year and it looks like we might do some day 2 type stuff.
ReplyDeleteI'm more of a make things and less of a draw things person, but I think this can be done.
I really like the looseness of these. There is such great energy in your line.....all these critters look happy :-)
