Insect - Illustration Friday
As long as I can remember, I have been drawing lady bugs and bumble bees as shown above. I also enjoy designing children's coloring book pages filled with simple lines and LOTS of areas to color. This way, children will be able to put in their own textures and add a bit of creativity and originality to their creations. This was my inspiration for this week's Illustration Friday, "Insect."
Don't forget to check out my other creativity blog, just because³. Here you will find my creations for Inspire Me Thursday.

Looks great! I sure hope your illustrating children's books, because you would be awesome at it.

That 'too cute' on the cuteness scale. Very nice.

What a charming illustration! The colors are so vibrant...and I especially like the texture of the background--it suggests a soft felt. Makes you want to touch it. Lovely piece!

Very very lovely and I agree with Chrissie... charming!
Very bold and simple and so effective.
Thanks for visiting my blog too! :0)

Luminous and joyous. This would be great in a book for children: beautiful and instructive.

I like how you keep children in mind for your drawing. It shows and has a great fun simple feel.

Not one, but three insects for the price of one. I really like their little bug eyes. Very nice texture in those warm colors... and are those stars and a moon in there?

Thanks for the comments! Twisselman...those aren't stars and moons...rather something much more simple...dots and swirls! :) You lose a lot of detail when you shrink these puppies down! :)

So adorable! :D I want to hug that bee! lol On second thought, that's probably a bad idea.

Great colors and I love the white outline you give to your illustrations to add a highlight on that item. Great job!

Awww, it's so cute!
Great colors. It has a nice overall polished finished look.

I love the graphic quality of this one!! I almost believe that spring is this close!

I LIKE it! Very cute and the outline really makes it pop out.

Super-cute Patricia! I love everything about it! Particularly the little bugs and their faces - perfect!! And the palette you chose is awesome, as are the lovely textures. You should definitely be marketing this stuff if you're not already.
Blessings,
