Toy Memories

Toys discarded from long long ago forgotten and alone waiting for that child to remember the joy of play.

I like this.
It looks like you abused your toys a bit as a child.

The composition is nice.
I like the way the eye is grabbed by the bear and brought down to the kids shadow.

Oh My goodness gracious! How absolutely lovely. What a fine illustration. Great detail all over the place. Very emotional as well. Very nice piece indeed!

Cute and full of emotion. You can feel the toys wanting to be discovered & played with again.
