Aww, this breaks my heart. My girls do things like this all the time. They have such grand visions for inventions, but they're all seriously flawed. Oh, the disappointment after all that effort - sometimes it makes me want to cry. Very beautiful illo.
Bless her! All your illustrations always carry such a story. Beautiful as always. I agree that the use of muted colours compared to the brighness of those 'not quite enough' balloons, works really well :0) Your posts are always a such a pleasure
Your illustration is beautiful. I really like the style, the texture, softness and the emotion portrayed by the entire piece... really wonderful. I hope she gets more balloons....
Oh my! This is exquisitely cute! Everything about the image is wonderful, the characters, the soft colors, your expert use of color pencil... and the story it tells is heartbreakingly sweet! Love it!

What an adorable pair they are. I'm always amazed at the way you bring your characters to life with a colored pencil.Just wonderful.
What a wonderful take on the subject. The little girl looks so unhappy . . . But the idea of a moon mobile is a wonderful one
