One year for his birthday, his dad coverted a giant snowglobe into a water bubble where Benjamin spent the rest of his days. He was content. His allergies disappeared and he never had to do another homework assignment again.

Benjamin and Ruby were painted in watercolor and ink on
2.75"x3.75" amalfi cotton rag paper.

very sweet! your characters always seem to be escaping to a better world, they'd be great for kids books.
Very cool illustration. I love the character and his big eyes. Nice one.
Living in giant snowglobe, hehehehe. Gee his fingers will end up super pruney.
I love his old-style striped milkshake straw air tube.
Your paintings would be wonderful all by themselves, but they take on such a delightful life with the stories you tell! I'm so glad Benjamin got to live in the water-filled snowglobe...waht could be better than swimming around with your cat and not having to do homework:>>>
