illy Friday


This is the third double-page spread from my Thumbelina series. In this illustration, Thumbelina is a visitor in Mr. Mole's home (I didn't put him in there but I do have him in a sketch). She is sewing dresses with the spiders because Mr. Mole wants to marry her. Thumbelina is sad though, because she wants to leave the mole's house in the spring with her friend, the Swallow. (He is in the illustration a few entries down)

That's really cool. I remember this story. I like how you made the spiders so friendly looking.
