Illustration Friday: Run


Things have still been fairly busy these last few months, so I haven't been able to sketch out brand new ideas for each subject. But, this is an image from the book I recently passed in, entitled Gallop O' Gallop.

Hey, I knew I knew your name from somewhere! A while ago, I stumbled across your Boll Weevil book in the bookstore. Needless to say, it is now sitting on my bookshelf. I love it! It's so lovely to come across your blog. Keep up the good work!

spectaular detail, from the line of horses trailing after her, to the motion lines of her hands, the open vastness of land and sky, the colors are warm and inviting. u nailed it

Thanks so much everyone! Makes me feel a bit better about the book. Most of my work is acrylic and watercolor with gel medium.
