#FolktaleWeek2025 Day 3
“Oh my, Death, can’t you see I am in the middle of finishing this quilt for my bed. You said you would come tomorrow. See, you wrote it yourself on the door. So unless you plan on staying and helping me finish my work, you should leave.”

Death approached. "Eleanor Sheep, I am here for you."
"Oh my, I hate to point this out but you have made a mistake. You said you would come tomorrow. You wrote it yourself on the door."
"Very well, I will come tomorrow."
Eleanor Sheep smiled.

#FolktaleWeek2025 day 1
The door opened and a hooded figure walked in. I am Death & I am here to take you, Eleanor Sheep. Oh my, Death, this is rather inconvenient. As you can see, I am up to my elbows in dough. If it is truly my time, could you come back tomorrow?

Harriett Hedgehog wants so badly to be a woodland fairy. So much so that one starry night, sweet Harriett decides to make her own fairy costume so she can join them in the forest. The first thing she needs are wings!

This is how I feel before the holidays! I can't believe it is already November! Happy #kidlitartpostcard day!

I am looking for representation as an illustrator or author.

As a collage illustrator I love to create my own painted papers and then make lovable characters! #kidlit #kidlitart #collage
