tiny dancer

i received a comment the other day from elise over at ballet news......
she was wondering if i would create a little dancer, thumb-style.
what a fabulous idea....and a great challenge!
so here's my tiny dancer, striking a pose that might not be an actual ballet movement,
but in my doodle brain, this is what i imagined!

thank you for inspiring me, elise!!

  4. We've just bought a few books featuring thumbprints and fingerprints, but yours are the best. How about making your own book. I'll buy three of them.
    love all your work.
