      I like this last one, the door opening would be an opportunity to show some awesome mousey door with little carvings or something... I like it.

        @audrey-dowling Really great to see all of your process on this one - your thumbnails look great! - for me I like this last version a lot and your original version too - when skimming through the thread before I read it all I thought that Lee's thumbnails were yours also and I thought "oh, she cropped out the window on the second thumbnail...that looks perfect" I think too that I would love to see your original with the window cropped out and this new one with the door cropped out so that the steam was leading us into the picture - what ever you do will be good though I'm sure - I love your characters 🙂

          My favorite is the one posted three days ago with close up of Mrs. Mouse to the right carrying in tea. Your characters are so sweet

            now, I'm done with the values.
            overall, much better than the 1st illustration, I think, I'm quite happy with it so far
            let me know what you think please

              I love your art. Very good, clean, emotional... Now I want to know who is coming through the door. If the door is closed the two mice are the focal point...

                @Russ-Van-Dine the text will be in the door and Mrs Mouse came through this door. so I'm thinking it's a focal point that has a justification (+ lighting): the reader might read the text first, then look at the image and see the characters in the actual image
