"flight"
The topic for this week's Illustration Friday was flight. I have spent the last two days working on a drawing of crows. But tonight after dinner I was playing "airplane" with the Monkey ("Again, again, again, Mommy! I wanna fly!") and had another idea. I scrapped the birds and went for the Monkey in flight as high as the soles of my feet could take her. Go Monkey, fly high!

you've transported me--i can hear giggles, feel a warm summer breeze, wind chimes . . . lovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone! I'm looking at the image and thinking of things I'd like to change with the execution. Maybe I'll have to revisit it. I generally paint in oil, so my water color skills are a little rusty. This is such a fun thing to do!
ReplyDeletethe girl expresses the fun you have perfectly. It's pure joy to watch this picture!
