IF ... Sweater

Our paws met earth once again, but the flight had taken us quite a bit north
of familiar territory. We set out immediately for warm attire, as the chill
was advancing along with the night sky.

  1. very nice (and cozy) ~a lot of subtle storytelling here.
    The sly colors hidden in the shadows of the rabbit and the facade give it a warmth that parallels the implied ardor of your two characters. You do a really good job at conveying closeness with a minimum of facial expressions...not easily done.
    hmmm... that rabbit seems to be eyeing that cap. ~looks like a good day for the store owner!

  3. Wow ... thank you for your nice words. Richard, keeping the characters consistent from week-to-week has been my real challenge (they're still morphing!) while the Illustration Friday keeps the fun in it. Judith, I'm so tickled by your comment. Thank you.

  11. Very nice Mardi.
    The form of the rabbit and the subtle textures are especially well executed.
    The flat perspective of horizontals and verticals helps really the characters and is a nice contrast to the blustery uncertainty of the previous scene.
    So the sweater just costs one carrot? what a great deal!
