    Love your unique style Willie. You are very confident with your lines. Lines are the reason I like painting. You can just keep adding paint until you get it right, but lines are written in stone. I am inspired.

    I was just writing this week about the cliche, he's so timid, he's even afraid of his own shadow. And I thought, "Wow. I really am!"

  4. what a wonderful treatment, with the words overshadowing the character. I often think that having a creative iagination is a wonderful thing...except, of course, when it isn't.

  12. I really love this. Her standing there, the words and the line between her and the door, makes you wonder about what the fear is. I love the actual drawing style too. Very cool.
