Artist's Comments

This is the last painting to be completed for my poetry thesis! Now it's off to finishing my other school projects before the end of the semester...

Poem: How Doth the Little Crocodile by Lewis Carroll

How doth the little crocodile
Improve his shining tail,
And pour the waters of the Nile
On every golden scale!

How cheerfully he seems to grin
How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little fishes in,
With gently smiling jaws!

Nice. I think your work would be great for children's books, among other things - but this one in particular makes me think of children's books.
:iconministan:
Another incredible piece. Your technique is very accomplished. I agree that you could have a tremendous illustrating children's books should you choose to go in that direction.

Hee. I loved this on first sight for the smooth and flowing coloring, but after reading the poem it's all the more charming. You did an amazing illustration job there, it fits on the mark. :thumbsup:

Art is an extension of the soul. If you can not create you are soulless. And noone is soulless

I adore your taste in poetry. There hasn't been one poem I didn't think was an ace choice.

I love the subtle swirls and his big ol' curly grin. Wonderful! Great way to finish the series, man.
