Stone soup always reminds me off my teaching days when we actually made a tasty Stone Soup and compared it with one that didn't have a stone in it - the children loved how it tasted the same!!! Belated Happy T Day - apologies for being so late - still trying to get my photos off my phone camera!

You could certainly be a children's book illustrator. I love kids books and I have seen some really awful illustrations. But these are magnificent!

Red riding hood is cute but I think my favorite is the 3 bears and Goldilocks. :) I also really like your little "bugs" when you were feeling icky. Hope you are feeling better. Cool card, as well as the dragon car I see on your side bar.

I loved your drawings Goldilocks and the bears were great, I think that was my all time favourite fairy tale and Puss in Boots looked like he had a real attitude with the strong pose.<br />A super post to read.<br />Happy T day wishes.<br />Yvonne xxMeggymayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15523023041456397683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7472962960077924706.post-56378435738895341952017-10-03T04:51:58.258-04:002017-10-03T04:51:58.258-04:00I counted seven cups, but I'm sure I missed on...I counted seven cups, but I'm sure I missed one. Like you, my train of thought was derailed and there were no survivors here, either.<br /><br />Those Grimm fairy tales were absolutely HORRIBLE. I have always believed they were used to intimidate children and keep them in line. One of those "spare the rod, spoil the child" lessons, I fear.<br /><br />You did a beautiful job drawing these characters. My favorite might be the stone in the soup because it looks so realistic, especially the steam. Of course, being a cat lover, I appreciated the sanitized version of Puss in Boots, too.<br /><br />LOVE reading your thoughts and seeing your gorgeous art. Even enjoyed the tea image you removed from the container/holder. Loved seeing your steps and your reactions to your art class. BTW, I took at least 11 steps today (grin).<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your wonderful art and coffee mugs with us for T this Tuesday. As always, simply beautiful art.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7472962960077924706.post-7357585907732015222017-10-03T03:11:41.414-04:002017-10-03T03:11:41.414-04:00Oh my gosh!
