Tribute to Beatrix Potter

When I first started reading about Beatrix Potter, I was fascinated by her illustrated letters: the start of her career as a storyteller and illustrator. So here's my homage to Ms. Potter: my interpretation of her now very famous letter to Noel about a little rabbit named Peter. :-)

As I do every week, I waited with baited breathe to see what you would do for WW. I love your line work. It's just delicious with character and fun. The bunnies are so cute and I love the narrative that's going on in the piece. Would make a great story book.
Great work.

Very sweet! I like incorporating the writing with drawing--it's interesting & draws in the viewer.
