That's funny, because when I read your comment my brain went 'really?' and then almost immediately I thought of Ludwig Bemelmans and the Madeline books!

(Strangely, last week someone told me that one of my pictures reminded them of Quentin Blake's illustrations...)

Thanks!

Thanks - what a flattering comparison! I can (sort of) see what you mean

Here are the other two attempts. I rushed the first one, resulting in some ink smudges and the sky was a bit blocky. Then got the second one I used a finer pen and the result ended up a bit too clean and sharp...

I love it!
