IF: ENOUGH



I almost didn't get a chance to post this one. This week has been very hectic with kids out of school and other family stuff!
 
I mentioned that I recently became and aunt and as a mother myself, those sleepless nights are all too fresh in my mind. Every one that is a parent can relate to the idea of never getting enough sleep when you have a newborn in the house.

I thought I would try to make this illustration look like a book cover. Any thoughts ???

I also just added my seasons illustrations over at ImageKind where you can purchase them as prints or cards, or on canvas.  This is my first time posting work on there. If anyone has any feedback about their experience with them, please share them here.

Oh, Edrian! This is incredibly heartwarming! One of the best parts of being a mom, definitely. You've captured it so well. Sometimes I make my dog sleep in the crook of my arm, just to recapture that feeling. Is that weird?

I just ordered a set of cards with your Seasons. I can't wait to get them! That is such a neat site!
