I like the butterflies and little animals in these paintings, and also the tussie mussie holder you made.

Mary Ann Potter said...

I love those illustrations, too! Classic, enduring, and special! I sometimes use children's book art in my own mixed media pieces.

Cute tussie mussie!

Sending blessings from here on the farm.

The drawings of the pixies and fairies are lovely, I too like these sort of illustrations. They take me back to childhood days.
And your summer cone is very pretty.

Beautiful illustrations Denise. I hope you had a nice 4th of July. It was pretty dreary here, but at least it didn't rain. Another pretty tussey!

Oh I love, love those illustrations! I will have to google the artist. Thanks for sharing. Also, love your tussie mussie.

One of my favourite songs that makes me realise God’s always around. — Dancing with God, Verse 1: You dance over me While I am unaware, You sing all around But I never hear the sound, Chorus: Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You How You love me Verse 2: You paint the moring sky With miracles in mind, My hope will always stand, For You hold me in Your hand.
