More Elves


This is just a little something I've been working on this week. It was a commission for my mom who wanted to send a thank you to some little "elves" who helped her set up the library at her school. It continues on the whole elf theme I've had going here lately. Who knows, I might have to write a book that fits these illustrations if I get enough of them painted!

    so what kind of paints do you use to do your drawings? As usual I love this. I love the colors, you should do a book.

    Now, ND you are so clever putting up all the elves together from the last challenges. It’s so thoughtful and meaningful…
    Beautiful library assembly just for those lovely hip patterned books. You could attempt the “pop up” version for your next piece.

I love hearing from you all, so comment away! I will do my best to respond, but if I haven't, it's probably because I'm teaching my kids, or am knee deep in paint, or have lost my mind.
