My Illustration
Challenge
for 2017
(My personal Illustration Challenge for 2017 is to complete one 'page spread' from a popular, modern or classic children's story each week, picked randomly from a hat. Using lines from the original text, I am re-creating the 'imagery' in my own way, just for fun!)
Â
Dr Seuss... where to begin?
Â
"You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose."
Â
 (Oh, The Places You'll Go! by Dr Seuss, published in 1990)
Â

Â
I really hated doing this one. Really, properly putting it off and not enjoying any of it. So it shows.
Not my best work.
I would probably come back and do something very different with more time.
Â
In fact, to be perfectly honest I wanted to get all political with it. (My daughters - unlike many other children - have options, for which I am very grateful. Choice is a privilege that I hope they never take for granted.)
