Dawn. Towards new horizons! . One week ago, I didn Dawn. Towards new horizons!
.
One week ago, I didn't think it would be possible to finish Folktaleweek 2025, and here it is; the last of seven illustrations! All featuring the mouse with a ladder... by the way, never forget to take this handy tool with you 😉
.
Over the past week I've combined my 365-days project (drawing the @natgeonl animal calendar) with the @folktaleweek prompts. I'll miss that little mouse 🐀

Didn't have much time to draw yesterday. However, images start in my head, often when walking the dog 🙂. I thought the Folktale theme was Gem (hence the golden ring with green gem), to find out later the theme is Charm. Well, the mouse is trying to charm the bird... will he/she say yes?
