You know what I love–loathe? Getting deep into a project and having a blast of inspiration. Love. The loathe is having to go back page by page and renew and relive them all to try to come up to the new Snuff. For the record: children’s books are not simple and easy and some of us don’t just ‘knock them out.’ Maybe some people do, or did, but I don’t know anyone personally that fits in that category.
I’ve been working on this spread for 4 very long days. Over and over with a totally different idea, as per my dummy. Last night I began again, totally different idea. When I should have been sleeping I played with colors. This is the new start, unfinished, but this is totally rocking my boat. In both ways.

My 50th time around with the crows. Their music will soon scatter the sky

Great image, Wendy! It rocks my boat too. : )
