The Storybook Tree

[meeks]

This is the finished version of one of the speed paintings I did for the May 2011 SketchFest. It was inspired by a prompt from Mary Strauchman.

Oh, this is lovely! I want a tree like this! *g*

I like how engaged the child is in the book, how comfortable he sits [it is a little boy, yes?] in the tree.

I really like this! The kid has an expression of wide-eyed wonder that is just absolutely awesome, and I remember sitting in trees like that as a kid.

I remember this!

Wow, I wish I'd had that tree at that age. Fruit aside, that was totally me at seven years old, always reading on branches. You even have the hair perfect, although not some other features.

I so want one of these trees. And the kid is adorable.

That's terrific! It looks straight out of a children's book. n.n
