That is much prettier than the little piggy story I remember… 🙂
Your colours and how you fill the page are, as always, brilliant, in both meanings of the word! Cheering.
Simply incredible! This is great for the theme 🙂
Very cool image. Love the creativeness.
Your work never ceases to amaze me. The colors and tones are fantastic. Magical!
Cheers!

Oh, WOW, Lisa! This is truly beautiful! I love the way your use such intricate detail and colors in your work. I’d love to see this one in person. Quilted??? How?! Wow!!
I love this picture so much!! WOW!!! It just sings and dances with music and color and magic – these huffing and puffing winds are amazing – and the tiny beautiful details, the distant buildings and flowers and curls – truly wonderful:-)
Of course you made since. Thanks for the pat on the head and back. I really need it. I totally agree with everything you said.
Thanks again.
What a wonderful, imaginative illustration! It is very beautiful.
Oh, this is just gorgeous! I could look at it all day. It reminds me of an article I read about twin sisters who work in tandem creating paintings in the style of Indian miniatures with political/social messages. I love that you quilt many (or all?) of your pieces—it adds an extra depth of texture. I always love to see your posts 🙂
all this and quilted too ??? you’re amazing !!
thanks for the welcome back 🙂
