Postcard Mailer - Back to School
The ol' school bus again, either we all have very fond memories of the bus or it was a source of daily torture.
I wanted to tell a story about a girl who was a little too much trouble and boy who wasn't looking to make waves. Maybe the frog ends up in his backpack. Maybe it escapes said backpack during class. Maybe wave-avoiding boy ends up in the principle's office. Who knows how we get talked into these kinds of adventures!
Can you tell my kids go to public school? I had to go with school uniforms in honor of all the poor babes who sport the khaki and blue five days a week!

This is a wonderful Illustration Heather!
The kids' expressions are just right and the color scheme is so lovely. I really love it :o)
Great to see your work transform from sketch to block print. Nice work.
You didn't plan it but there is the shape of a question mark on the boys backpack above his hand which goes along sublimally with his expression. Neat!
Run like the wind, wave avoiding boy! That little girl is nothing but trouble! hee hee..
Great illo, Heather! Very fun characters. :)
