We've got similar ideas for this week's theme :) Nice job with the ink washes, I like the warpy bedframe too.

I haven't really worked with ink washes very much at least not since college - maybe that will be my next experiment. Yours is quite nice. It helps that you have a great drawing underneath.

Well done! It looks like dad's a bit apprehensive being so close to his spotted child. I really like the ink wash, and I love the attention to details - the little birds outside, the overall spotted motif, the expressions on both figures. Good one!

I Love it ; I haven't see this Illustration when you publish it, I see it because you've let me a comment on mine. Love your style, and your concept!
