Illustration Friday: Highlight

This is the last of my posts for 2011 and the word this week is 'Highlight'. My youngest daughter saw me drawing this and asked me why I had to draw 'creepy' pictures.
It's not creepy is it?? It wasn't my intention!
I've had many highlights this year but if I'm to recall the highest highlights of this year it would be moments when I've felt love.

 ♥ Because love is the most important thing of all. :) ♥

I'm off to celebrate my birthday and I'll be back soon with my new year's resolutions.
See you then!

Happy birthday!

I had to smile when I read your comment about your daughter. She sounds about right; my daughter often says things like this too. It is their job.

And no, it is not creepy at all. Why not freak her out one day by doing something that is?

Happy, happy birthday. Your lady in the purple dress is definitely NOT creepy. It might be interesting to ask your daughter why she thinks the image is scary. I bet her answer will be something that no adult would ever guess.

In the meantime have a Happy New Year!

I don't think it is creepy at all. It is lovely. I would love to know more about what your daughter meant.

Aren't daughters funny? They may not always agree with us, but they tell us what they honestly think! Not creepy at all, however...quite nice, in fact!
