Illustration Friday - WOOL

When I saw the challenge word was 'wool' I immediately thought 'sheep', as I'm sure many people did. Not exactly original, and anyone who has visited this blog before knows I strive for originality! But the sheep I thought of are the ones that appear in the children's book I illustrated, 'The Quilt Book' . I had a lot of fun with these particular sheep & selected some of my favorite scenes to share with you. I admit, I feel a little guilty, not drawing something new for this week's prompt, but the truth is, I've got a paying project I really *should* be working on, & ultimately, any new sheep would kind of look like these guys anyway! So, in an effort to be professional, stay on the straight & narrow, meet my deadlines, & not get distracted by visions of fabulous new sheep....... "old" sheep, and therefore, "old wool" it is!!! As always, I appreciate you stopping by! And if, by chance, anyone is interested, the book is still available to order! Just click on the link! :)

I love these illustrations! I think it's great that you had work available to use for IF this week. I wish it would happen to me! I think there's only been once where I could use something I had done for another purpose. These illos are so cute; I'm glad you posted them!
ReplyDeletegood call on using your Quilt Book illustrations to fit the topic this week Mit! There's great work in that book!
ReplyDeleteThis looks really sweet, Mit. Nice illos!
ReplyDeleteI love the sheep in your book...such fun, lovely personalities! I especially love the one cuddling a crocodile!!
ReplyDeleteThose sheep are very cute but the quilt, wow! I love the quilt. Very cool idea. And I know it's not necessarily new, but congratulations on the book! :D
ReplyDeleteI don't mind at all, that these are 'old' sheep! They are new to me, and so cute!
ReplyDeleteGlad somebody else didn't post new 'Wool' art. As you know, I failed at that.
ReplyDeleteThis book looks like a solid read, but I like the art the most. Very cool to see your artwork in print. Bravo.
Does your powerful Vette plow through the powdery snow? hah, sounds like a tongue twister. Those cars are fast.
Can I change my comment font? I prefer something a little more masculine, and san-serif. :)
ReplyDeleteYour BEST ONE YET!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAww after the effort you make for IF every week, I don't think anyone is going to mind you using your sheep this time, and great sheep they are!! Lovely looking book :)
ReplyDeleteAwww, so adorable! I love his colorful quilt. And I want onesie pajamas that make me look like one of your fluffy sheep. Sheep and alligators! Hahaha, best buds. :)
ReplyDeleteWell done...I couldn't do that one so I had a week off..I couldn't think of a less inspirational word...We'll all be doing knitting classes next...NO thanks!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet book. I especially love the spread with the giraffes! I'm so glad that I inspired you to submitt for they draw and cook. Let me know when you do.
ReplyDeleteFantastic!! I love how thick and woolly their coats are but especially love the animal quilt. Congrats on the book too - looks amazing!!
ReplyDeletePS. thanks soooo much for visiting my blog - been in a bit of a creative coma lately so it was v inspiring for Phoebe to be welcomed back with such enthusiasm by her fave fan xo
I've done it too, use a previous illustration when it matches the topic so perfectly. Yours do! Adorable and fluffy sheep!
