  3. Hello Elizabeth:
    How is it that whatever, and here is no exception, your 'characters' are always full of expression? Here Henny looks rather as if she has surprised even herself with this wonderful, slightly camp disguise. The boots are, of course, magnificent and quite ridiculous!!

  13. Elizabeth dearest,

    YOU ARE SO KIND !!!!!!

    Your comments made my comment viewing moment! I am back at school today for our first district meeting. This week is a mild week, or rather, teacher meetings and classroom preparation. Next Tuesday IS THE DAY when the children come. The real show.....

    IF you want to see some of my drawings, come to:


    http://linktonowhereland.blogspot.com/

    that is my team blog. Any posts from CASTLES CROWNS AND COTTAGES is me....there are three of us that contribute drawings. It is HERE where I came out of MY RIGHT BRAIN CAVE and started to draw again after 40 years. FUNNNNN!

    Many thanks and have a spectacular day! Oh, and HEnny will see that she is not the only animal that likes to wear boots...(hint: Tea Rat)

  15. I snorted some of my coffee when I saw that. I actually have pink cowboy boots, too. Never thought I'd be fashion influenced by an armed chicken.

  18. A regular gun-slinger. We shall heed the words of poultry from now on...

  19. Actually, I feel a bit of fear for Henny after I was attacked by a horrible rooster. I did nothing to him! You should have seen me running. :-)

  22. Ok, Elizabeth, this is adorable, and you do amazing work, but looking at the latest posts with Teddy — axes & guillotines — hmmm, so dark... makes me love your work that much more! Perfectly divine.

  23. Right on!…terrific illustration.

  24. So fabulous...and I love the defiant little Native American chick!

  25. Oh, Henny has a sidekick now. What is his/her name?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Love it! My guess is the chick is saying "Aw Mom, if you insist on wearing that, please just drop me off on the corner so none of my friends will see you."

    Hey, maybe that's why the chicken crossed the road!

    ReplyDelete
  27. His eyes are awesome :D, the red boots remind me of Ted Mosby.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Too funny. Everyone should run from a gunslinger with pink boots!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Sure fooled me - though her sidekick is not convinced this will work, I see...

    ReplyDelete
  30. Brilliant - very funny and I love your drawing style. The chick is wonderful! :-)
