Alexandra 2014 Doodles New One on Last Page

[SilverO]

I like the bird in the beginning of the topic, very colourful

Your last paining is very eerie probably fits right into the mood of the book, because that sounds so creepy.
But it's nicely done.^^

This sounds very random but I really like how you've drawn the feet lol I can't draw them at all

[AT-TA]

Beautiful Sandy, both of them.And so good you are back at least for a while.

Don't know the story, but I can guess it will be filled with wonder and challenge. Sounds compelling, as is this very mysterious, Goth illustration. Almost as if she's going to discover her true self through the ordeal.

Nice one!

Witches and ghosts for the forthcoming springtime ... LOL Nice painting for an intriguing character.

Haha Silver O, thanks, and thanks for viewing!

Silly doodling AT, but thanks so much. Good to see you.

Hi D Akey, it is my interpretation of the two characters, the expression of the boy, and the deceased from long ago. I am just sad that it has taken me so long to discover Neil Gaiman. On a monthly visit to the library and checking out books with my son, I grabbed a few of his stories written for kids. Coraline, Odd and the Frost Giant, and The Graveyard Book, I couldn't put down...devoured them this weekend. So, now I begin reading a few of his others for adults this week...Neverwhere, Anansi Boys, American Gods. I join his long list of fans.

Hi Cesare, I know it is not the time to upload such a strange drawing as this. It was something I made on a whim after reading this story. I am on one of those reading sprees I guess, and this is one of those things, if you haven't read the story, it would be difficult to understand. A great one though if you are in the mood for something different. A boy who is raised and educated by the best....without giving away the story, I will stop here. Thanks for peeking in though, and your nice comment! I will be sure to upload some flowers soon, as things are blooming and the weather is changing...finally!

Hi Sandy...
If words written in a book can inspire an creative interpretation with
a painting.... then I 'am checking him out.
Nicely done,
Steve

a whimsical little girl , Sandy and I love it reading is my passion and I'm never long without a book in my hands

Hi Steve, I know reading is very personal, I hope that you enjoy his work as much as I do.
Thank you!

Hi Jean, I have three books going right now, and I am sitting up too late reading them-haha. One on the kindle, and two more to hold.
I am glad to read that it is your passion. It is something to prefer books to other things, but as I get older, this is how I feel.
This little character is a boy though, without a barber, or clothing but a sheet to wear living amongst the spirits.
It seems dark, but without giving away the story, it is a pleasant read, with action and excitement here and there. Gaiman's inspiration
he writes comes from Kipling's Jungle Book.
