I.F. SECRET

A revealed secret had led them to a secret passageway which led them to two of the biggest creatures they had ever seen.



A good friend of mine reminded me that I have no female representation in any of my Illustration Friday paintings and challenged me to man up. I have an issue with backing down from a challenge so here you go Shar.

    i love it, jim! the lighting, the sparrow guys, the secret passage, and the giant creatures add up to awesome. i'm thinking all these IFs should become a book or something. :) thanks for accepting the challenge.

    Wow! Just amazing. So adorable and such a wonderful and magical scene. If not a book at least a poster, perhaps?
