The Sky Is Falling In Wonderland


Here is one of the prints from today. All in all a very productive session. I managed to channel my anxiety into my work. Actually, it was fun. I started with the alarmed horse--an image I have worked with before. Clearly,  the sky was falling. But what exactly was it plummeting down on the poor horse? I decided to look up Dodo birds and ended up having grand time reinterpreting the Dodo from Lewis Carrol's illustrations for Alice. I added a white rabbit as well. Drawing the fur and getting the posture was engrossing.
There are also four half finished pieces in the shop. Another version of this print, and some cheshire cat-like critters. Hopefully I will finish and post soon.
