Art, art, art!
Zoë and I have been working on more projects. First, this:
This is amusing because a response to Mei Mei's newly emerging style. She has entered her 'balloon people period'. Here we see Mommy and Daddy.
On a more conventionally developmental note ... Zoë's 'still life with fruit':
Next, an illustration for Horton Hears A Who. Our protagonist, that fool kangaroo and kid, and an infant Wickersham in the trees.
The following obviously goes with the Chang-Ee series, but I don't about the flying figure. (Must ask about that tomorrow.)
Next, someone (not me!) taught her this classic game. The 'drawn the head, fold it over', 'draw the middle, fold it over', 'draw the feet, unfold and look at the results' game. Zoë did the head and feet. I contributed the torso.
Another sample of the genre. Here I contributed the head and feet (well, stump and roots). This is good because, after it was done, Zoë added porkpie hat and stogie to my cat and told me - Belle? - that you taught her to draw cats smoking ciggies?


































Exquisite corpse!

The stogie goes very well with the cat's devilish grin. What's up with the red ears? Were those in your original or part of her emendations?

Zoë contributed the devil-horn redness of the ears.
