I'm just feeling this out, no game plan at all. Forgive the proportions etc - I won't be putting faithful reproduction on the top of my to-do list for a while. But I do like the result tonight and so I share

Approximately 9" wide by 11" tall, using pencils I stole from the little children

Thanks for sharing.

Hello Don - I haven't seen the Seuret sketches you mentioned and a brief net search didn't help either, so I will have to put that on the library list. Thanks for the heads-up.

I'm posting a couple of close-ups to show what I did Bernie.

Next time - but I'm keeping the crayons of the little just because
