Thanks for visiting my blog, Shirley!! I just LOVE your illustrations - so sweet and whimsical. And I love that you live in the Bay Area - Daniel and I lived there for a few very happy years (got married there) in the late 80s, early 90s. We just love it there...
Ditto what everyone else said! I'd follow anyone with a box of chocolates, too! But Fox is a cutey-pie without them. Your sweet, soft watercolor style is enchanting, Shirley. I love seeing what you produce. And thank you for your comment on my blog! Back-atcha!
your characters are so lovable and cuddly looking. It brings a smile to me face. And the chocolate thing works around everywhere :) ps. thanks for stopping by mine blog too
