IF - Book

Here's another Illustration Friday.  The word this week is "Book" - a subject near and dear to my heart. 

This time I drew the sketch, scanned it into the computer, and did the colour digitally.  It was fun, but not as meditative as painting.  I think I'll try some more that way, though, as I'm pretty happy with the result.  I printed one out onto cream-coloured paper, and I just love it.  I think I might frame it and put it up in Holly's room (when she gets one!)
