Illustration Friday: "Hoard"


I'm delighted that I finally had a chance to do an Illustration Friday illo.
This was really fun to do once I got going. I had doodled a couple different ideas, but this one won out in the end. I was able to explore the the ink and colored pencil combo which I really like.

Very nice. I like the idea of using the house itself as a character.

This is a great illustration to explore! So many little treasures. Boy, I'd hate to be the one to open that door!

This is a great illustration. You made the house really look like it was about to explode from all the all the stuff.
