So you said some really kind things on my blog that made me blush and want to write those kind words down in my journal. Anyway, so of course, being that I'm a detective by night I decided to "investigate." So I found that you are phenomenal. No really. You're art is incredibly inspiring. I love how lively your lines are your style is excellent. These characters make me feel like I'm a little kid again. Anyway... I'm officially a fan, so thanks for dropping by!!
I love your artwork. There is a joy in your creativity and your work makes me happy I found you because of your kind comments on my friend Kay's Snipling's blog and I have to say you are also a wonderful encourager. I'd love to hear you preach! Keep up the good work on every level. "An encouraging word does wonders."
Oh Vanessa - this is just glorious!!!! And so clever to be able to keep the strings from being tangled (I know from the experience of trying to untangle a kite after flying it in a gale:-) I love this picture - and as always, I come away from your work with a big smile and a great feeling:-) Thank you!! Hope you have a wonderful weekend, linda xx
So much fun, Vanessa, so original and full of playfulness and charm! Your kids are always adorable, you capture their poses just right, and I always love their colorful outfits!
Thanks for you lovely comments on my blog. I do enjoy the work of Quentin Blake very much (as well as James Stevenson, Stephen Michael King and many others.) You've given me a truly great compliment! :-)
Oh, honey, you keep me flying high! This is just too adorable. They look so blissful. My daughter came home singing "Let's Go Fly a Kite" from Mary Poppins (they're learning it in music). I'm going to be singing "Let's Go Fly the Kids!"
i want that polka dot shirt and those jeans. this is terrific, vb! looovvve it as always!
(hee, hee...vb...sounds like your some heavy duty c.e.o. and i'm your lacky ordering office supplies for you. "i'm on it, v.b...i'll get more ballpoint pens and stickies."
What a clever twist on the regular Kite string thing, and great illustrations on your blog too.
I usually worry as soon as I see a Kite in a picture as so many are drawn bridled so they would never fly, but these children are obviously bridled just fine. The Kite knew just what to do :o)
Hi Ms. Newton, We met at the Circle of Sisters. I told you that my little girl looks just like Ruby. I love your site and your artwork. You wanted me to send you a picture but I can't figure out how to do that here. Is there an email I can send the photo too? Or email me, would love to here from you (ddslumberparty@verizon.net). I showed my daughter the book and she said "that's me!" Her name is D'Ella and I'm Odessa.
It's good to be #45! My goodness lady, you have lit this place up with comments... I can barely squeeze in here.
Great image as always, I really love the poses of your little folks here and the little girl looks just like my daughter. You can't go wrong with a kite.
I couldn't find an email link on the blog or profile (but that's probably me being thick). I saw your comment on Kate Rietz blog re the stamp she drew for us, and quite a few of our Design Team feel the same as me that you would be perfect to do some designs for us too. I wonder if you could contact me to discuss.
