I have only ever drawn, poorly, what was in front of me. I love how your imagination takes you into other worlds and possibilities, perhaps mine needs a bit of practice!

Thank you Christine 💛 They're PNG image files of the illustration that I drew, with transparent background - I just drag and drop them into the letter. They're available to paid subscribers to download from my mini illustration market here and there are lots of others too. 😊https://whileiwasdrawing.substack.com/p/illustrations-for-you
