Illustration Friday - return and vocal





'Return' ©Caroline Soer

I've decided to keep this illustration up for another week as it fits both this and last week's Illustration Friday words 'return' and 'vocal' so well!  Here the baby birds are being quite definitely vocal  awaiting the return of their parents to the nest!

  11. Your details are beautiful as usual. I was trying to read the print on the scraps of paper in the nest but couldn't get it large enough (or maybe I need to go find a pair of reading glasses!) I love slipping little bits of personal knowledge or history into a picture, especially when I've created it for someone in particular.

  12. It's a perfect double entry... return and vocal! Totally sweet birds but the nest is just wow! So great. I love the bits of feather just barely there.
