I love her face and the way you've done her eyes. This is a lovely original idea for the topic! I used to spend long periods of time watching ants about their business when I was young, they're fascinating aren't they?x
Simply gorgeous Kathy! I love how the character is observing the hierarchy - very creative apporach!! I absolutely love your style...soft and subtle, but powerful! Sorry I missed your entry for last week's topic, theater...it was brilliant as well! Great use of color all around!
Kerri, my drawings usually take about two days.. often when I think I'm nearly finished, I end up working on it for many more hours because I'm not happy with the depth of colour! :)
Just one word...Fantastic! OK well 2 words... Wonderful...well maybe 3... Forget the numbers.... another terrific work of art. I wanted to say what part of your illustration I liked best... but I can't ... It's all so GREAT!
Wow!! Her skin tone is amazing, and just the overall flow of the picture, it's beautiful!!! I wish I could this with coloured pencil, this is lovely and a great take on illustration Friday!!!
This is so beautiful. I love her face and the way she watches the ants. I love your style and your colouring technique. And since I've missed some of the entries allow me to add that Impossibility is brilliant, and I love Talisman, with the clover in the foreground. Your work is simply amazing, thank you so much for sharing it with us :)
This is such a wonderful concept showing a slice of nature that most of us don't think about. The softness of your work also comes through in your delicate, sweet characters. This would also be perfect for this weeks'word, parade! Another stunning piece, Kathy.

Kathy i would love to be around to observe you working, do you go back to it in stages or one session. Your work is amazing :-)
I like her tender gaze to the ants.
Ants really have a very hierarchical social structure.
Good idea for the topic!

I was always fascinated by the ant world as well, and by your beautiful illustration. Good work!
