Illustration Friday: Flawed


Reginald almost looked like a regular little boy.
There was one small flaw
, but the neighbors were far too polite to comment on it.

This one is lovely and mysterious!
I didn't notices the flaw until I read it's description , and now, it's too bold to ignore! There is a creature in our fairy tales(I'm from Iran) which has hooves and mostly appears in bathrooms, and if you say:"bismillah" which means in the name of God ,it will vanish :)

Your style has a mysterious, haunting and slightly Tim Burtonish feel to it, but it has great texture, too! I wish I could find a better word than interesting to describe it, but it's so original!

You are beautiful and lovely and very mysterious and super duper talented!!! What flaws???? What??? YOU are one talented Sistah. I just love, love, love your style. Poe would be so proud as am I. I just went to take a look at the fabulous book and it's wonderful!!! Your illustrations are quirky and mysterious and yummy and deliciously filled with whimsy. I should like to meet you some day or at least purchase one of your lovely books. Please let me know when it's available. I'm so happy that you came to visit me. Thanks so very much.
