    Around here balloons are greeted with much suspicion...

      No doubt thought of as floating heads... ;) I would be suspicious, too.

    I would love this on my wall. You always capture the essence of who or whatever in your drawings Lizzie. Here, the sweetness of a little girl happy with just her balloon.

    She stole that off Bunny and painted it blue and puts on an innocent face!

    Adorable, as always! My nephew used to call them "banoons", and I've loved them even more ever since. That paper is intriguing with the subtle texture. Might I ask what it is?

      Thanks, E. I have a whole bunch of ideas. I'm waiting to see which one of my characters elbows his/her way to the fore. So far, it's a race between a pig and a cat ;) How kind of you to inquire :)

      Hi Paula. It's just simple brown craft paper. I used to use it a lot back in my scientific illustration days...

      Thanks, Claire! The paper actually looks a little funky, since I took this with my iphone. It's color in reality is a little more even. I forgot to scan it before I sent it off across the country!
