When Natalie returned from her long summer vacation she'd
brought home more than Grandpa had bargained for.
Natalie explained that she had purchased the poor creatures
from a strange bubble gum machine in Lake Wood, NJ.
She told Grandpa that he needed to add on 3 more
rooms for the little darlings. hee he hee hee!
I'm going back to South Carolina to visit my peeps.
Just wanted to make you smile before I head on out!
Have a wonderful week everyone.
Fish and grits Yaw!!!!

ReplyDeleteHaving lived in SC for 11 years, I bet I know some of your peeps, or at least a cousin of your peeps.
Oh no! You're off just as I managed to get rid of the new version of IE8 which had a glitch that stopped me from visiting my favourite blogs by either freezing the flippin' page or just pinging up with a hugely alarming message telling me to ABORT this operation. Anyway, its gone and I'm back. Thank you for leaving us with a smile - such an enchanting little story and illo to go with it. Have a safe trip and a wonderful time, Vanessa! As they say in the old country 'hamba khale' - go gently!
ReplyDeletevanessa - have i told you lately how much i admire your illustration techique? you're the bomb, sweetie! what program do you use anyway? I look at your work in awe and try to figure it out and can't!
ReplyDeleteOoo this is the cutes illustration ever...i love the monsters
ReplyDeleteI swear, you post these things faster than I can comment on them! this is just wonderful-i especially love that gooey blue guy!
ReplyDeleteVery nice. That blue fella is kinda creeping me out though!
ReplyDeleteI'm heading to Lakewood so I can get some monsters out of a gumball machine. Cute!
ReplyDeleteI hope Grandpa realizes that if they lived in a gumball machine together then they might learn to be content with sharing a room. The blue one would probably sleep in some sort of jar anyway.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors! fun fun piece
ReplyDeleteNow in gumball machines too! These monsters are more colorful & cuter than the ones under the bed :)
ReplyDeleteVanessa - I gotta say, I just love coming to your blog..it's like a vacation that I want to just hang around and enjoy for as long as possible! Fantastic work as always..and I can't wait to see your new book. Hope you have a wonderful time with your peeps! : )

Wow! Just another sunny piece to wake me up. Thanks Vanessa:)
ReplyDeleteYou are excellent with colors.
ReplyDeleteBTW: I am excited to find a veteran phlebotomist who can illustrate. I, too, work in a laboratory but now my title is medical laboratory technician. I am beginning my journey as an illustrator. I have a lot to learn but learn I will. Slowly but surely. And I feel even more motivated because I see how successful you are.

ReplyDeleteThere have were times of hardship when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in large initial investment.
