... and her eyes are all expanded from the light shows and whirling carousels... There is something oriental about the scene. I know the woman is selling tickets for yet another merry-go-round, but in my interpretation she could easily be a scryer, a friendly fortune teller. (Sheikh Hamidadus lives in the tent behind.) Its early morning here, I think I am still in my dream ;)

The lightness of your drawing is wonderful as it always is!

I appreciate the helpful comments so much. Thanks for kind people. Cristova, your discriptions raise everything to a higher level. Majeak Ann you english is great. I tried to speak spanish recently with disasterous results. Cristova's english is superior to mine. I just accept it. Rrramone the medium is different brushes in IllustratorCS with Wacom tablet.

I like how you have limited your palette. You have those brushes in Illustrator down cold! This has a lovely, charming old fashioned children's book feel. Very very nice.
