I really like making illustrations like you did with this book: taking a step further from the text. I'm often making illustrations where it's not clear right away what they mean or how they relate, but after you've read the text, it starts to make sense. My teachers don't like it though, they want more of the straight forward things...<br />But you've proved that working in this way can make it so much more exciting!!!!<br />Amazing work! Congratulations to both you and Laini!Veronikahttp://veronikamarosy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18942841.post-74474563141520874222009-10-20T07:01:31.879-07:002009-10-20T07:01:31.879-07:00YAAAAAHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
