Keith with potatoes chips, "final?"

I guess it's had to see the changes in the final version, it should have bothered posting them all. (I may not actually be done yet.  I changed the smile, the eyes, the arm, the hands.  But it's fairly subtle.  Hmm, I liked parts of the earlier versions better--I may not be done yet.

Collaboration with Aya in Mike's book

Blast from Past: Henniemavis Hijacks Ballookey's Mole

I hope this is permissible, but Mary is visiting me in NH & happened to be traveling with Ballookey's book... so... I couldn't resist! These 2 pages are entitled "Conversations Between Friends I" and "Conversations Between Friends II". All imagery is directly related to snippets of tales told between Mary & I. We spent a lot of time outdoors & did a lot of drawing, painting & blabbing. No further explanation will be given. Not that you would want any further explanation, I'm sure :-)
