helvi2: Dust Bunny News:
I wrote this story 16 years ago and asked Mark (MKFlood) if he would draw some images for me. Though I have images in my mind and how they appear, I've never actually seen my characters. Mark liked the story and graciously accepted to draw some awesome images for me. I hope you'll stop by and view his images. So far he has done...
1) Dust Bunny Hop
2) Mr Broom....( Dust Bunny's friend)
3) Dust Bunny and Bud.... ( otherwise known as Rug Bug)
4) Vader ( The menacing vacuum
( Vac Vader is short for Vacuum Invader. I thought of him as kind of a Darth Vader character in vacuum form) A big upright vacuum who'd love to suck up Dust Bunny.
I know you'll love them !!! Thanks Helvi2 aka Nancy

helvi2: Helvi's note to the team and you for "A Colorful Creation"

Hi everyone, I was so proud to be part of MKFlood's team in the creation of this piece.. His team consisted of Cleo, DRAGONdog, Himself and Me .MArk also brought in a musician who created the music,Bryan Taylor. Mark not only added his artwork but also created the video and added Bryan's music. DRAGONdog did a super job with the animation and added the black musicians. Cleo did the background and I added a few touches of my own. All of the artists involved with this piece created wonderful artistry for me to work and put together. If you enjoy the piece it is because of them. I was honored to work with them all and think they did a super job! Each one of us is grateful for you taking the time to review. Thank you so much for stopping by, from all of us! :o) :o) :o) :o) :o)
