Poor girl. I can feel the pain...been there before. Saw my dad leave. Nice illo, Enigma!

This blue-green that you used, creates an environment melancholic which gives much charm to your illustration. Great work : )

Love your two rejection pieces!! The bottom one is fun, like a page from a children story; the top one is sad and expressive!

Amy Huntington said...

Sad, yes. You have a lovely loose style and a wonderful palette!

Julia Kelly said...

Very nicely done- really captures what is going on and there is no doubt her dad is in that car- who else could it be!
