drawing challenge




































Mano invited me for the drawing challenge of this week. Her theme was: Letters. So I made a drawing inspired by an older Pippi-drawing of mine. I like what came out of it: is the girl happy because she got so many letters, is she throwing them away or is she handing them out?
If you want to see more of the drawing challenge of this week, check out Mano's blog for all the participants.

  1. Hi Céline, I love the way you ilustraste the subject.
    I do not know why the word letter gives me idea that you did, on flying or floating in space.

    I tell you something. when I was a teenager, one day I told a friend: "how I would get a letter, and no one writes to me" and he said "I will send you one this week"
    indeed, these week I received a letter from him, and inside the envelope was a paper that said only "fool"
    It was a joke kids.
    OK good weekend for you!

  5. Feels surreal. I really like the flying envelops like they are on their way to someone's home....
    The colors are fantastic too.

  13. hello Céline, nice to meet and have a look at your interesting work.
    a real surprise!

    your work above made me think of a girl who is rescuing all the letters that get lost on their way to their destination x

  15. Yeah, she's just happy, so she's jumping up and throwing them in the air!
    I would be happy, too, if I received that many letters! ;o)

  16. I think, she looks like floating under water, trying to catch the letters, someone has thrown into the pool...

  17. Hi Celine! She looks so happy and excited she's throwing the letters up in the air while doing a happy dance. 16 letters at once would be awesome! Have a good week. Carole
