    This would work for a children's book. Seriously, I adore this. their expressions are so lovely. Everything about is.

      Thank you, and the intent was to illustrate a story I wrote, but getting anything published or even seen is an ordeal. A nice unknown kind of ordeal, but I just want to paint and draw. I really need an agent or someone who will market my personal work... but I don't think they make beautiful children's books anymore with lots of chapters.

      If I were you, I would get an agent. This work should not be ignored. If they are not making books like that anymore it is a crime. Probably due to the Kindle and the Nook. A shame to take books away. You have something here. I feel that much.
