Mirror, Mirror

I've always been intrigued by the small, trading card sized story books. My kids had the 3 Billy Goats Gruff and 3 Bears in miniature, and those books went everywhere with us. As I drew this illustration, I was thinking of those toddler days. I wish I could find a magic mirror to relive those precious moments through again!

And Sir Dante' says this is one of his favorite storybooks! At 2.5"x3.5", it fits him perfectly!

Beach Blond Snow White

"She shouted at him, 'Listen Buddy!'

'You drag that filthy girl outside,
and see that you take her for a ride!
Thereafter slit her ribs apart
And Bring me back her bleeding heart!'"

Thanks for all your advice about my previous post, I really appreciate it. The huntsman is my favorite part....it is inspired by a man I saw at a local library (he was dressed sorta like that too). Snow White dyed her hair bleach blond...it is very shocking.

p.s. Delores Duckington-Merifeather it is just a coincidence that we both did the same passage ;o)

Roald Dahl's Revolting Rhyme-Snow White

Well, this was very challenging. I'm not really sure if I got this right or not. It started out as a spread (I think) and ended up looking more like a cover. Oh well...
I tried to make the Queen not just intimidating, but also slightly babelicious.
I hope I succeeded in my interpretation.
This is the part I chose to illustrate:

Then suddenly, one awful day,
She heard the Magic Mirror say,
'From now on, Queen, you're Number Two.
Snow-White is prettier than you!'
The Queen went absolutely wild.
She yelled, 'I'm going to scrag that child!
'I'll cook her flaming goose! I'll skin'er!
'I'll have her rotten guts for dinner!'
She called the Huntsman to her study.
She shouted at him, 'Listen buddy!'
'You drag that filthy girl outside,
'and see that you take her for a ride!
'Thereafter slit her ribs apart
'And bring me back her bleeding heart!'

Have a great day, all.
