When illustrating, it's intriguing to me how the smallest line or mark can be so subtle, but may make such a big difference in the emotion displayed in a character's expression. 
At the Sketchables blog today, I share this sketch and the final painted image, which shows the emotion that I wanted to evoke in this artcard illustration. This artcard, and the one below, were created for Kelly Light's ripple sketches blog. Such a great blog chock-full of gorgeous and inspiring art images, all donated to help the animals most affected by the Gulf Oil Spill tragedy.

Oh Pricilla, how beautiful! I love this little one all sketched out and finished. It's a wonderful piece. No doubt that it will sell in seconds he he he he! Great work. I was a student in your one of your seminar classes at SCBWI conference about 4 years ago in New York. I was a part of the artist intensive. I remembered that we spoke about your church that you attend. At time I was attending Christ Church with Pastor David Ireland. That has been years ago. I just remember you being such a great teacher and showing us your fabulous work. You have always stayed in my spirit. God had blessed you with such a wonderful gift and that you share it with such joy is such a blessing in and off itself. May He continue to us you in this publishing world to set it on fire with work that inspires and uplifts.
Best
Vanessa
