Illustration Friday: "Swept"

This was so much fun.  I've been enjoying my pen and ink more than ever and working on getting more interest in the lines and contrasts in my illustrations.  I've also started experimenting with hand-drawn background textures.  This turned out to be very "busy" I think, but maybe not too much?  I asked my daughter if I'd gone overboard and she said to leave it alone.  So here it is!

  7. Hiya Laurie. Lovin' the textural linework and the characters so full of, well, character. The pleasure in your work is very clear to see, which makes it a joy for us look at.
    Oh, and thanks for the feedback on my frog with a bouffant.
