I love the playfully stern expression. Such a fun contrast at first to the idea of love…until you investigate the rest of the story hidden in the picture. Beautiful work! =)
Hi, Kristen! You registered it exactly as I’d hoped, in two beats. Glad you enjoyed the little joke.
I mini story of lost love, adorable thanks Anni.
Perhaps still retrievable. Thanks for stopping, Chrissa!
Your work is lovely. Visited your website. I am struck most by the faces there. So compelling. Each face invites me to the story the illustration is telling. Thank you for sharing your work.
