Great awww factor! Love the colors and the different choices of what they want to do on a great summer day. Particularly like the ice cream cone. Makes me hungry. Think I will take and break and join them.

    He he, thanks for the review Jane. Its been gorgeous here the past week, summer is well and truly on its way, I love it!
Comment from Mr Jones


yes a very well conceived image, mixing a typical family scene, with some super cute cat and dog characters. your style is being honed to perfection, as it crosses between childlike innocence, over to a more adult humor. it's all in the facial expression.

    Thanks for the review Vincent. I am so pleased you said that, thats exactly what I am trying to do, to appeal to adults and children a like and capture a silly and feel good factor. I absolutely love disney films, especially the pixar ones. I just sit through them chuckling away, pure genius how they create the characters. Thats what Im trying to achieve with the illustrations, something fun and silly. I'm a bit like Jekyl and Hyde aren't I lol
