Smoke



Ragdoll lived way way out in the country. She was down to earth and grew all her own food and loved to bake her own bread.

Beautiful. I love the pattern on her apron and the texture of her dress, and the grain of the wood cabin.

Thanks kindly for all the nice comments! And to answer your question - yes it is all digital. I used Publisher. I keep reverting.

Beautiful ragdoll and a beautifully rustic cabin. Nothin' like the smell of homemade bread.

Great illo! I like the collage style, and the rag doll character is fun. Grey and pink look terrific together!

Just reading about Ragdoll reminds me of this eternal dream I seem to share with many people (and why do we never pull it through?) to live a simpler life. Looking at her happy face I am ready to pack bags and move into a hut!

I was assuming your work is digital but its just great how you work it around to make it look so real collage like.

I really like your charming, hard-edge retro style. I can see how it would adapt so well to kids books.
