Debs, this is amazing and probably the best work you have ever posted. The detail is mind-blowing and I have no idea how you had the patience to do it all. I just love the impact of the black, white and red - so very Alice in Wonderland - just perfect. You are wonderful at these illustrations and I keep telling you to offer your services to a publisher - I am sure they would be so impressed. You have certainly achieved the heavy Victorian feel to the room and Alice's dress so job well done. Superb! P.S. Re-post as much as you like as I am sure that everyone would be pleased to get another look at these super illustrations.

Super work Debs, so much detail, this must have taken you ages! Thanks so much for your moment on my beach boy watercolour painting, that's an interesting note about you not wanting to start ww3 Iin the forum by posting your drawings, I take it people don't often post artwork on there or at least not to many!

As I said on AF Debs, a fantastic illustration that I could never tire of looking at. So much to see and so well drawn. You are right to put these Alice drawings (that seems such a lowly word for such great work :) ) all together in one gallery, they tell the story without need for words..... And show them to a publisher!!! X

Stunning detail Debs and the black/white/red scheme really packs a punch! I can't wait for the re-posts.

This is excellent Debs, so much to see and as others have said the limited colour palette works wonderfully.

I absolutely love your illustrations, Debs, post on, anywhere, anytime! This is a stunning piece, so charming and quirky and full of character. It's just brilliant!

Fantastic drawing Debs! Every little detail is just perfect. What a skill you have got there!! Post, repost, delete and post again but we want to see them all!

Wow, I've been out all day [ having a day from hell I might add!] so to come back in, log on, and have so many super comments is wonderful - you've made my day!!! So thank you, Michael,Thea,Ros, Val, Fiona,Christine, Seok and Satu I really, really appreciate such comments from artists I rate!!!

Expertly executed as always Debs, where's that book?

Thanks Carole, it's coming I promise - lol!

Good, I am pleased to hear that you are going to get these fantastic illustrations out there. This one is superb and you really have achieved what you wanted.

Thanks very much Gudrun, it's lovely to think people like them and take the time to leave such generous comments.

Pen and ink illustration of Alice in Wonderland, tried for a busy,claustrophobic, heavy typical Victorian atmosphere with this one, and my poor Alice is very disappointed that it was all a dream! I don't want to start WW3 on the forum, so I'm letting everyone know that I will be deleting and re-posting these Alice illustrations into a separate gallery, which means re-posting them, but I promise it will probably be one a week and there's only 6 of them up to now! Hope that's ok!
