Illustration Friday - Popularity


Willa Bean is instantly more popular because of her rare, polka-dotted, knotted arrow.

This is another illustration from a series of chapter books called Little Wings that I'm illustrating. Super-dee-duper cute books!

Your values on this one are very subtle and soft- it matches the image well. I like it!
