I'm joining in with #frostyandfestive2024 prompts this year, as I missed having prompts to work with since Peachtober! It's fun doing new Christmas related illustrations 🎄☃️❄️
The first image was for the prompts Snowflakes & Snail Mail.
The second illustration was for the Craft prompt!

This book is a simple introduction into what living with Bipolar is like for me. I wrote it for my daughter to understand & now a useful resource worldwide! 💙
