Hatter25 challenge prompt: "comfort".

This is a follow-up to "water" and "rescue". It probably doesn't look connected to the other two, but it's just the end of their scary adventure; while skating on a frozen pond, Alice fell through the ice. Reggie rescued her and, with the help of a heroic stag, brought her back to the Theophilus homestead for hot baths, lots of tea and soup, pajamas, and mild snuggling. I can't imagine anything nicer than being read to by a handsome hero, and falling asleep on his heart.

Reggie is wearing monogrammed pajamas, and has fallen asleep in the middle of reading Mark Helprin's amazing A City In Winter, illustrated by Chris Van Allsburg, one of my favorite artists. Alice's nightshirt is one of mine. The strawberry square is patterned after one of my favorite mugs. :) I think that's all the random trivia.


props and love: Reggie belongs to :iconbri-chan:
materials: ink and Letraset illustration marker on bristol, PS7
music: Nick Drake, "Place To Be"

When a ninja kills you, you never see him coming. Pirates, on the other hand, say "Arrr!", alerting you to their presence. Then they kill you anyway.
Holy Hell. Does it hurt to have that much talent?

Congratulations on the DD also. Couldn't of gone to a more talents artist :)!

I cannot remember starting to eat this banana.
Thank you. :) I have fun putting stuff I like into drawings. Darby Conley, who draws the comic strip Get Fuzzy, does it all the time with books and movies and music, and I love it.

I think so, too. :) Tooting my own horn -- that quilt looks really damn comfy.
